PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The air was so heavy it was hard to breath!

So dense I could scarcely stand. 

All the while watching and waiting and hoping 

Waiting and weighting for something grand! 

And when it came my eyes could not see

My ears could not hear

And my heart barely beat! 

I knew it was time

I knew it had come

But the bells in my head had hardly been rung! 

In fact just the opposite had been done

The war drums were sounding

A battle'd begun!

The joyous joy of Christmas Day... That was what was due today

But that was not what night had wrought 

The disappointment of Christmas-not.
