Cold is here, snow it's a dream. We dream about snow and Christmas, joy and presents. It's time to consider. It's time to make a balance. Go out to the streets and you will see lights everywhere. Some people are happy, other struggle, but it's Christmas everywhere. Time of reflection, time of commitments. Time for the snowflakes to fall down. Christmas should be white, Christmas should be the season to be with the ones we love. It's Christmas time here and there. But everywhere is not Christmas. It's time for remembering about all the ones that won't be sat on the table. Those ones that will have snowed wings but no Christmas at all. Many children will have sugar in their mouth, other will have sour throat instead. White Christmas are here and there, White Christmas are a happy or sad time. White for ones and black for others. We still wait for the snowflakes to fall down on everybody, but Christmas are magical, and maybe change the milkyway, your point of view or your complete life. Christmas have that moment, when you think everything can be different and friendly. A miracle of love can be done. Happy moments for the children with their toys, thoughtful moments for the old people waiting for Christmas as the last ones. A gifted Christmas every year, a happy Christmas to celebrate. Another year is gone, another year to be happy because we made it and we have hopes for the new one to come. Breathing the cold air, feeling the happiness flying above us to wish everybody Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Hello Maria Fernandez, So nice to meet you. What part of Spain do you live in? I have been to Spain in the 70's. i was just wondering. Your poem Tells me you want a while Christmas. Dos Spain have snow? I rather have a little snow or a green Christmas with no snow at all. You know, not everyone has a good Christmas celebration.

Hello Maria, You are welcome .Are you in Madride? BARSALOANA? Casablnka? Sometimes in Canada it gets too cold on qinter days. I live in Ontario Canada. It is winter now. There is not too much snow it is coming soon. I was in Spain in the 70's. Saw the bull fights, but not sure where in Spain that was. I agree i also hope the war in Ukrine will end soon. Your right it is a stupid war. It was nice to talk to you. Are you ready for Christmas? Hugs. /Darlene

Hello Darlene, Thanks for your lovely comment. I am from the northern west part of Spain. Facing the Atlantic Ocean, facing Canada. When I was a child we used to have lot of snow, but actually, because of the climate change, we hardly see snow here, lot of rain these days though. Some parts of Spain have Snow, in particular the areas near France, near the Pyrenees Mountains. But, in general the weather here it has dramatically changed. So, what part of Canada are you from? I've never been there, but it must be a beautiful country, in spite of the snow, which I love for a few days.You are right, Christmas are not white for everybody, I especially think about the war in Ucrania, very difficult for them. Anyway I hope Santa Claus brings the end of that stupid war. What part or parts of Spain have you been? It was nice to talk with you. Don't doubt to contact me always you like. Thank you very much. Have a nice time.

There are people that struggle all through the year not able to celebrate Christmas. There are many people that lost jobs this time of year. They can not afford to buy gifts for the families. Thigs are too expensive in the stores. Enjoy your dsay my friend.
