Its Christmas time Tree lights glitter through my unshed tears ...as I think of you Here's our first ornament the one we searched for that perfect first Christmas Here's the boys' first ornaments how happy we were the day they were born better than any gift we could buy A tear slips down my cheek for each ornament I place on this tree tinsel tears flowing down Memories...joys...heartaches Sparkling bright They dont make an ornament for this for the pain, the heartache... my first Christmas without you. |

These are the sad days, and although they are sad we are resilient and capable of getting through it. Nice work even if the subject was sad. . . . and the Raven said, %!~#&(!$! |

You set the mood perfectly in this piece Paula. It's the blues that come around and sometimes writing about it delivers a bonding factor to the readers. In a strange way such beauty from the dark side. Eric |

This is very intense and it hurts, dear Paula. Christmas is a day of memories and melancholy comes in power waves. Love and hugs. Margherita |

Sad, but well written and expressed. I'm sure many feel the same. Peace to you. "We'll chase them like rats across the tundra." |

Fine writing, Paula. Very touchy sentiments, gently expressed. "Hardwork pays in the long run" |

Reminds me of a Christmas past that wasn't so good...but after a worst Christmas they can only get better...in my worst times I always found that there was one special friend that was there for me....James |
