Poetry: Including All at Christmas!

Denise Farrell

It's a beautiful time of year

When loved ones are near

The joyful laughter of kids around

The buzzing of Christmas toy sounds

Its cold outside and time to keep wrapped up

And don't forget to drink a hot sup

But let's also remember those who are no longer around

Christmas isnt just about our family on the ground

There's also the people who have no one at all

Let's try to make them feel less small

So smile at everyone you do meet

Because to some it's more than just your greet

It's the only nice thing they might see this season

As a smile costs nothing you don't always need a reason

Never forget Christmas is for everyone

And everyone should feel that they belong.

So light a candle for those in heaven and keep the poor in your heart

As Christmas should be enjoyed till the end from the very start!
