The Dark Days of Christmas
2011 and Christmas isn't the same,
The silence and make belief joy
sends auspicious feelings far and nigh,
Revellers go through the emotions
just to avoid falling apart,
As news mongers spread doom and gloom,
Heralding the closing of schools,
The holidays have been reduced
to fear, angst and downsizing,
The dark days of Christmas has
everyone surmizing,
Spreading good wishes and cheer
may warm hearts everywhere,
The sentiments can bring hope,
to individuals who are unable
to cope,
Positive words and feelings
last beyond Christmas Day,
They can give hope and faith
all throughout the year.
