Remembrance

Courtesy P. Morrison

Entering into the festive madness
For many is a time of sadness
Memories flood of loved ones lost
Of presents left behind in shops
The gloves, the socks
The pipe and slippers
The shiny handbags
The comfy knickers
Tears are wiped from many eyes
As precious moments flash
Through countless minds
A life well lived with love and laughter
Smiling remembrance
A happy ever after
