Sending.

A message for you all at this beautifully sad and exciting time of year.

The loving smiles are true in nature,

A family of which to feed and cater,

Bright young things are full of glee,

As they whisper hopes upon a knee.

The fathers pride knows little bounds,

Many singers ring bells of clear sounds,

A gift wrapped box set high aside,

Those hurtful feelings one can abide.

Mothers secrets not told but thought,

Webs once hugged now fearful fought,

Glitter adorns her silk like face,

A kiss from those she takes embrace.

Leaving sadness now with years alone,

Please remember to steer clear atone,

While Christmas may bring memories back,

Be quiet and do not leave cheer to lack.

Have a very merry Christmas my darlings, I adore you all and hope you are being sent all the love you deserve. x

This is so well written.Your rhyming is excellent.I find it hard to do rhyming poems because I find it is quite hard to do without making the lines sound forced, Another year gone and presents opened but have we let go of our ill feelings or are we breaking bread with malice in our hearts?.We should learn to forgive because we never know how long we will be around.

Wise advice in the poem. Hard to be positive when you are alone. Always good to put the past behind. Tried to begin the new year with hope. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

Merry Christmas! This is a perfect little poem for the holidays. "While Christmas may bring memories back,
Be quiet and do not leave cheer to lack." These final two lines are wonderful. Thanks for penning this.
