    Christmas Without My Family

     Its Christmas time
    I am sitting here all alone
    Divorced and missing my little boy
    Its hard to feel cheerfull
    When I am missing my pride and joy
    At the stores it gets irritating
    Buying the gifts its just not the same
    Knowing he wont be here on Christmas
    I let them go, so I am to blame

    Presents are just presents
    Gifts just gifts
    Without your Children around
    Christmas as a day is just what it is
    Trying to feel like a adult
    But I feel I have lost my cheer
    Trying to be a man
    No need for you to see my tears

    This year I can do with out the tree
    Is there really any need for the lights'
    With out family around
    The holiday just doesnt seem right
    Hard lesson to learn
    One lesson I need to make
    Proof I am not perfect
    Next year will not make the same mistake

    Besides the weather is miserable
    Where is the snow?
    Please send no gifts
    Lets forget the ribbons and bows
    Here is to Twenty Four hours
    Of loneliness and misery
    Lets hope it goes fast
    Christmas without my family

    D.B. Johnson

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
