""BUT WHAT ABOUT THOSE?""

 


(Christmas 2008)


""BUT WHAT ABOUT THOSE"" who are grieving, when,

the hustle of happy Christmas shoppers are

about, but then?

 

Seemingly, changes do happen each year.

That familiar Christmas music, we can't help

but hear.

 

Stores are bustling with shoppers and good cheer.

""BUT WHAT ABOUT THOSE"" who are grieving, out there??

 

Selecting the perfect gifts for those we hold dear.

""BUT WHAT ABOUT THOSE"" dreading ""must do"" shopping

each year?

 

Pay attention, store managers, open your eyes and see.

A needed private evening of shopping for ""the

bereaved"" should be.

 

Quiet evening of shopping for those who are

brokenly grieving.

but "HUGS' worth a million that we will be

giving and receiving.

 

And while browsing with others who also mourn,

will be a mutual bonding of hearts greatly torn.

 

When our lives, with family and friends, were more

than wonderfully sweet,

We could not imagine the suffering of those feeling

so very incomplete.

 

""BUT WHAT ABOUT THOSE?""

 Since 2004, I do certainly know.

 

 ""BUT WHAT ABOUT THOSE"" and the anguish each year?

There is a reason for the season, so as not to fear.

As Christmas comes round each and every year.
