WINTER ARRIVES

Light snow breaks from the clouds

It sprinkles a dusting that the

A light wind will not blow away

Folks have been waiting for this

But overall there is a certain

Amount of depression as

November was mostly gray and cold

The downhearted feeling will not last

As we realize how good we have it

And how much good we can do for others

There are ugly people around the globe

Who are pulling for misery and anguish

They, in my judgment, are the chaff

Which will burn while the grain, those

Who led good lives, will watch and hear

The cries and the gnashing of teeth

In the present time, we will hear

Christmas carols and join in with the singing

We will look at ourselves and try to

Find ways to improve our lives.  It is

Difficult with politicians making decisions

Which are counterproductive to our welfare

We also have world dictators who control

And enslave their citizens.  These helpless

People are hungry and thirsty and although

We give they never receive our gifts

This adds to our gloom as we realize that

There is nothing we can do except pray

Prayer has to be the answer along with

Forgiveness for those who offend us

We think of three hundred people

Dying each day of drug overdose,

Especially Fentanyl.  Still our government

Chooses to leave our borders open to

Human trafficking and illegal aliens whom we

Must house and feed, using money from

A budget that is trillions in debt.

It’s the season to be merry, fa, la, la, la
