Poems
Jan 2015
Exiting the Christmas Arena
The highly-charged-festive spirit
Of Christmas all aglow.
Food, garland, gifts and lights
Songs and trees, the whole show.
Orchestras and cantatas.
Heav'nly bells sweetly rung.
Fife, cello, mandolin, violin.
And lovely choruses sung.
But the carolers, now, are silent
The ornaments are on the shelves.
All the gifts are opened
There’s no more need for elves.
The candles are blown out
And the gleaming lights unplugged.
The heavenly bells sit silent;
Gone is the Christmas bug.
Decorations all packed up
And the tinsel taken down.
Stores remove their displays.
Family has left town.
The Christmas Season’s over
The festivities are done.
‘Tis time to leave the Arena,
Ahh. It’s time to move on.
Though life reverts to normal,
Still, keep the Spirit alive;
Remember why we celebrate.
Let Christmas ever thrive.
