A Sad Christmas Day
Christmas Day, December 25th –
she sits alone in living room;
joyous day for her is but a myth;
this day is filled with sad and gloom.
All her family and friends are gone;
she has no one with whom to share
season’s joy; youth’s happiness foregone;
her spirit filled with doleful air.
Sitting on the sofa all alone;
fire in the woodstove softly burns;
reading poetry of somber tone
in hopes to ease these woeful yearns.
Longing for the love she’s been without,
but Christmas tidings warmly brings
cyber friends to her are reaching out
in hopes to heal her broken wings.
