Happiness prevails?
But sadness is everywhere,
Why?
Tears cascade to the snow
And the Snow melts away
After just one day, but
Why?
We wish to get our people
The greatest presents
We can find and afford
But we oft-ignore
The poor and the poorly
And the people so sore from living,
Surviving, that it hurts them to sing
A Christmas Carol,
Or it hurts to spend another
Day Alone, lonely, or
Home Alone,
But with wet bandits
In your head, winning,
And singing all the Christmas songs
That crash you down from
Santa’s sleigh into your shortest, coldest, darkest days.
Christmas Everyday
Would bring dismay
To many a face,
Too many a trace,
And many left wondering
Why.
