Christmas alone

Many may spend this season
longing for the laughter and
communion of family and
friends
Many may pour through photo
albums recalling happier times
or wishing their mate or fantasy
lover would be sharing a cup of
hot chocolate in front of a crackling
fire
But even more may find themselves
gazing at those same old walls and
taking that familiar walk accross that
cold lonely bridge
We may feel we have lost lifes best
and the torturous long hellish years
haven't amounted to much and there's
not much left to do but feed the animals
and go to bed
But there is no loneliness for the true
lover of life
Only the wicked are truly alone for they
have no qualities or character to recomend
them to the land of the living
But the love for others breeds a glowing
joy deep within that finds a thousand
possibilities in every breath of life
It is always christmas for those who
love
Silver bells are the song of the soul
Imagination is a sleigh ride into an
exploding galaxy
Never mind that others can't see it..
It is a gift from heaven to you.
We shall dance on the rings of Saturn
Santa's got a brand new bag****

ty niah..I should have said, 'there is no aloneness for
the true lover, because we can all of course get
lonely..

Hey Sunday.. The circus sounds like a
blast! By the way, if you happen to see
an 'older guy' high up on the tight wire
holding a cup of coffee wearing embarrassingly tight shorts and mumbling
crazy stuff about castles and knights..well
that will be me.lol

Best wishes Bill.. You have been a solid
and enduring friend to me and so many
others here on the corner. Your insightful
and knowledgeable critiques are a
standard bearer in there own right.
The authorities have me chained to a
desk at the local precinct as I write these
immortal words of admiration. Merry Christmas!

You are not alone - that's for sure: it's unimaginable with the whole world around and a thousand and more "possibilities in every breath of life" and "a glowing joy deep within..." - especially when our imagination soars - in no way we can feel lonely. You've fallen from roof while fixing a garland as I learned while perusing your delightful poetry ... because of that fosterling of yours called Hiss. Was she hurt in any way?! I am worried. I am all for dancing in your castle or better on the rings of Saturn if there's a room left for latecomers. Many happy returns of New Year, dear poet!
