What a Christmas Is This

What a Christmas is this, all dressed up and no bliss. The tree is all lit up, I am here with an empty tea cup. The snow is falling outside, all I have done is cried. Christmas past where have you gone, I need you back before the dawn. I say a prayer this will pass, oh no was that burp or gas. God can you please help us all, my little girl just wants a doll.

Hey Paula, it’s going to be a lonely Christmas for some with only memories to look back on. But it’s still that special time of year when we celebrate and rejoice the gift sent down from heaven to here. Enjoyed the read - Merry Christmas! Belle

Hi Paul, Yes who would have believed that last Christmas festive season this time of the year that we would be deep into a Pandemic, and unfortunately the light at the end of the tunnel seems very far still. Hope your little girl gets her doll. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
