Day 12: Where Is Christmas

WHERE IS CHRISTMAS? (A Poem)
Are you trying to make Christmas happen this year~
By keeping the traditions that you hold so dear?
Is it in the making of your favorite cookies
or building the gingerbread house~
Is it in reading "Twas the Night Before Christmas"
where there is a sleeping mouse?
Is it in watching the movies that make your heart smile~
Is it in buying the truck or the doll for a child?
What happens when your tastebuds change~
And your favorite cookie is no longer the same?
Or the storybook that you all loved to read~
Remains on the shelf because there's no longer a need?
Or the movies you loved, now make you cry~
And toys are something that you no longer buy?
But one thing never changes~
And that is The BABY in the crib,
