In Retrospect

Christmas was a time of laughter and cheer Often times I didn't get the toys I wanted each year Was I a bad child? Why did Santa forget about me? As the years went by, in retrospect I started to see, I got everything that really mattered each Christmas Day! I was loved, I had shelter and food to eat on that day! Merry Christmas Everyone And A Happy New Year!

That is the true meaning of Christmas, Alexis. You expressed it very well w/thoughtfulness and wisdom. A super cool, laid-back, introspective poem. Splendid soul searching. A holiday 7 for you. Soup's on me, because the wisdom you gave us was given free. Much love and a Merry Christmas.
