Another Lonely Christmas Eve |

Another lonely Christmas Eve- I wonder at the fuss.... That people make about the season, The bustle and the rush..... I know the Christmas story- And believe it to be fact. But why do people always put- On such a phony act? The stores are filled with shoppers And most the goods are gone.. They’re planning get togethers- But I will eat alone. I’ve spent a Chrsitmas Eve in jail But that was long ago- I’ve nearly frozen one or two- Out in the cold and snow. I used to cry myself to sleep- Now, all my tears are gone.... I’m one of faceless thousands Who goes through life alone. So, Christmas? Merry Christmas? May yours be filled with bliss- I do not need your pity- I tell it like it is... Another day, another year- A century gone by- I’ll travel yet another mile- Ere comes my time to die. A Piece of My Mind http://www.geocities.com/montcogunslinger/Homepage.html |

Well, whether you want it or not here's a great big HUG wish I could give it to you in person. And now, kind sir ... that's the last Christmas present I wrapped ! Open it and smile ... just a teeny one will do. Love ~Marge~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Well done, Gunslinger. Hugs to you and ALL those who need them. Elizabeth Nail to the mast her holy flag, Set every threadbare sail- And give her to the god of storms, The lightning and the gale! -Oliver Wendell Holmes |
