Do They Know It's Christmas? Poem by Lyn Paul
Do They Know It's Christmas?
All I want for Christmas
Is a day on my own
I have so much to do
I will not feel alone
The sun will shine
I will walk on the rise
Along the beach
I will splash in the tide
I have a great book to finish
And a new DVD
So many pictures to sort
Beside the Festive Tree
I have music to play
To get me in the mood
Such a selection
Of mouth watering food
To be alive feels like Christmas
And it is another day
Give some thought to those less fortunate
Too many. Their days are grey
The meaning is lost
At Christmas time
It's no more about Baby Jesus
It's about spending that dime
So spare a thought for those
Who have no one who cares
Do they know its Christmas?
Can we all say a prayer
a slight typo in last stanza, but i like this one. you got it right in the title. hee-hee. :) bri we should be compassionate every day of the year, not just on Christmas! I have music to play To get me in the mood Such a selection Of mouth watering food............if i weren't married, i'd invite myself over to join you! ! bri :)
Christmas...... Peace on earth, goodwill to all men.......... the ideal. Christmas.......... Commercialism gone mad.......................the reality. A lovely, thoughtful poem, Lyn. I think, in general, we have forgotten what the true concept of Xmas is.
A Beautiful poem Lyn. My Belated Christmas greetings. I too missed to sing Christmas songs along with you. Wishing you a Very Happy and Prosperous New Year 2015. God Bless you!
