I don’t like Christmas <br />may seem an odd statement <br />especially for me. <br />Someone who tries to write <br />about it with pretty poetry. <br />Christmas used to be a lot of fun you see, <br />but not anymore. <br />What changed it happened many years before. <br />It was a sad time <br />that affected us all, <br />it was when near that day <br />my granddaughter was taken away <br />to heaven and ever since then <br />Christmas is a sad time to me. <br />When I look at children <br />with smiles on their faces, <br />I think of how old <br />my granddaughter would have been. <br />Therefore, you see why <br />I say I don’t like Christmas <br />with all its cheerful spirits, <br />especially when we take flowers <br />to put on that lonely grave each year.<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-don-t-like-christmas/
