I Miss You Christmas

I miss you Christmas, since you’ve gone, I’ve searched for you through endless miles, why have you left me all alone? I miss you Christmas, since you’ve gone, why must I face this lonely dawn, when you still shine in children’s smiles. I miss you Christmas, since you’ve gone? I’ve searched for you through endless miles. Another Christmas, no one cares, No laughs, no smiles no twinkling eyes, here alone with no one to share another Christmas, no one cares. The cold of winter my heart bares, holiday words are merely lies. Another Christmas, no one cares, no laughs, no smiles no twinkling eyes. I miss you Christmas, please come home. Where are the smiles we used to share? Through this sad day I blindly roam, I miss you Christmas, please come home. My life but dark and endless gloam, the bright lights shine but no one’s there. I miss you Christmas, please come home. Where are the smiles we used to share?

A very mournful one, James. Beautiful of course, a nice addition to the contest! Has a bit of a carol quality to it, albeit the restricting structure. Congrats on your win. Always, Laura

Hi Laura. I must admit, it is not my favorite form. It was a difficult write. Thank you.

ralph, this is wonderful. It reminds me of a very old person whom nobody visits. I sure hope I never have this kind of Xmas on my horizon, though my most recent post is pointing in that direction!! It was great seeing a NEW poem here today.

Thank you Vijay, a difficult write. I find the form very restrictive. BW set a challenge for us.
