Twixt Christmas Eve and New Year
‘Twixt Christmas Eve and New Year
A time to reflect or regret
We ate and drank too much methinks
when family and friends we met
We remember loved ones no longer here
Fast approaching the end of another year
As the clock begins to strike
On the very dot of midnight
We are praying Covid 19 goes away
And stepping out to breathe
the freshest cleanest air
For years we took for granted you and me
And longing once again to be mask free
Life ne’er can be the same
since COVID 19 came
Are you and I the ones
to really take the blame
Or was the sign from up above
to show Mother Earth more love
For to care ~ not to destroy
appreciate ~ and to enjoy
Our Mother Earth for all that she is worth...
