Hi Cuties, I have not long finished a Christmas Poem and wanted to share it with you all.

A Christmas Poem from the Heart

by Lorraine McNeill

To all my friends at Christmas time,
I'm hear to tell you all.
That it's time to come together,
It's time to have a ball.

Mums and Dads look fondly across the room so bright,
They look at the next generation, the love that fills the light.

They are gathered together to celebrate, the wish for peace on earth.
For love that should be given freely and the warmth of the family heart.

I wish for you the best of times, of love and happiness true,
of wealth of cheer and comfort dear, of family close to you.

So please remember dearly what you have read here today,
because there are ones that cannot feel this way, that are alone all day.

Please send your love to them and wish them all the best,
because Christmas is not all love and laughter, but of struggle and of woe instead.

Remember today is for giving, and not only for the take.
So give of yourself and spread your love beyond the family nest.


Merry Christmas

Beautiful, Lorriane. Your words are so true. We have a family member that gets depressed,every year, at this time. This is the time we want to be close to our friends, family, loved ones and she doesn't want that. Over the years, we are thankful when she participates and 'overlook' when she doesn't. There is a little empty spot in our hearts but we don't force her.
I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and hope for all good things in the new year. May God bless you & yours-Toogie

Hi Toogie, Thankyou sweet lady. Yes I know too well the heartache of having a member(s) of the family find it so hard to feel at ease around people.

Merry Christmas
Love Lorraine
