Christmas time does many things... Some, thoughts of joy and jingle-rings Inflate their minds with warmth and hope For "magical-Christmas-party-dope"... "The VERY BEST lights in all the town!" And warm rum punch...egg-nog all round! Presents to capacity... MORE than fits beneath the tree! And then there's those who simply wish A decent meal on cardboard dish... The hope that one day they might find What "meaning" to this Christmas grind The time of "love" and "hope" and such The "giving" to who don't have much But seems that's never quite the case... That "love" and "giving"...little trace. So this year, I don't care that much Bout Christmas trees and lights and such Bout making sure the presents abound Cause lately I have found So many people live their lives Perpetuating selfish lies Not "looking" into peoples eyes Not "hearing" others' cries... Just WANTING EVERYTHING to have! Like money, cars and "magical salve!" The BEST of this, the BEST of that... They wish upon their epitaph That they lived "well" and they lived "rich" Their lives went on with out a "glitch!" And yet another "Christmas-Time" Was "magical" and so sublime!!! They do this each and every year... Want NOT to shed a tear For..."those others"... Those they fear.Birth sign: Pisces
