    Christmas Tears

    Its just a few weeks before Christmas.

    Every song I hear isnt cheery, its quite sad.

    My parents are gone, I miss them so much.

    My tree still isnt up.

    No decorations adorn my home.

    My lil girl awaits the lights and festivities,yet I have none.

    My heart is blue and cries for ones long past.

    My oldest comes from The North on a Train home from college.

    And I am doing all I can to hold back the tears.

    My other boy waits for the joy and hopes to see a smile on my face.

    I must do this for my children with style and grace.

    I have a good man in my life and all I give him is tears when he and i once brightened one anothers lives.

    So tonight I will shed my last tear.

    And store them away

    for another day , another year.

    Sometimes it's hard to get into the Christmas spirit. Especially as we get older and the kids are out on their own. (Not saying that we're old) No matter how much Christmas melodies I listen to on the radio or Cd's I might play, it's still hard to get into the mood. I'm not a Scrooge, but I at times feel depressed. Other than that, a very well-written and heartfelt poem.

    well ty very much. Its such a wonderful thing when someone can actually feel what I an writing.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
