When I was a child time seemed paused, tranquil
Delightful, bright summer days, adventurous
Loving family and friends, games to play
Christmases joyful, merry, full of love and glee
Memories of smiles and laughter, with presents
Paper hats, pulling crackers, turkey dinners.
Wondrous times shared with parents and brother.
Now, white-haired and in old age I wait alone
With parents and brother gone, buried grave deep.
On Christmas day I eat alone at table
Then watch the Queen on TV giving her speech.
I remember all those other festive Christmases
When I was a child sat with my family at table
Hearing the laughter, sharing the happiness and joy
