Coming Christmas

And I think that in few days of the Christmas morn that we will see memories I have so many of them so many Christmases that I have seen of snowless ones what I was a child with my sled as I did search dragging it down sidewalks pass the brown lawns but with youthful hope that I did find snow a Christmas morn’s spent with my love with opened presents together shared a treacherous trips in four-wheel-drive through snowpacked streets clogged with cars all the hopes and all the dreams of gifts to be received and of gifts to give in years past so long preparing with homemade gifts that we would share with our lists so carefully made of all the places that we would go all the people that we would see all the presents that we would exchange of all the joy and of all the parties all of that but not this year the day will come to an empty house no trips will be had no gifts exchanged a Christmas like none we’ve had before with the hope the will not again yet I will not forget the day why we celebrate on Christmas Day

HI William, I like the way your poem took me down memory lane and then into our "covid Christmas" current reality but how you are still using the past to kindle your hope for better days..very nice Merry Christmas
