Christmas

My favorite holiday is Christmas

Christmas, Christmas, 

I love the smell of the pine trees

Looking at the trees now without leaves

Smiles on peoples faces

People going out to buy presents

Some might stay in

Some might like to go out

Whether you’re up and about

Christmas is a time of joy 

It’s a time when your family gets together

People who can’t come usually send out letters

It’s a holiday of joy

Children get toys

Laughter fills up the room

Hearts are warmed

Man, do I love Christmas  

Where presents come in all shapes or forms

This is a very sad poem, for this is what I felt last year.

This Christmas is something we might all fear

What new catastrophes might pop up at the end of this year?

Because 2020 is not done 

So it is not yet time for fun

No more gathering

No going to the malls

It’s hard to go outside and play in the snow

Frowns on peoples faces because this was a bad year

Many forget about Christmas and only look up to a new year

This took a twisted turn but this is just what I think

Times are tough and the best thing you can do is wait

A new Christmas will come soon there’s no need to worry

Just focus on making the best out of this one 

Just focus on having fun

Focus on your family and yourself,

Because Christmas is too important to waste.
