25 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS


  When December starts the pace of the season 
  Takes off,

  There becomes much unneeded stress put upon 
  Ourselves.

  A joyous time and celebration it should be these 
  25 days,

  A time and chance to become a little closer to 
  Neighbors.

  There's a rush of shoppers dressed for this cold 
  Time of year,

   Some are happy and thankful, just enjoying the life 
  That they have.

  There are those whom are unhappy, and feel the 
  Need to show it,

  Many emotions are witnessed throughout the 
  Holiday season.

   Family comes to town, sharing a walk downtown,
   Within the lights, 

   Decorated shops and store windows, up and 
  Down the streets.

   25 days of Christmas, are to be a special time 
   With loved ones,

   Share this time with them, try to forgive, let a 
   Grudge die today.
