Christmas Traditions

The way that people

Stop underneath what is essentially

Weed to share a romantic kiss

Is quite baffling to me.

The way that people

Walk through aimless

To introduce their children to Santa

And make them sit on his lap

Is quite mind boggling.

The way that people

Drive themselves into

Just to show their kids that they

Love them with all of their hearts

Is confusing to my brain.

The way that people

Can be different in that some

Truly enjoy this season and some

Dread it with such intensity

Brings comfort to me.

Maybe its it’s the scrooge in

But sometimes I find more value

Making sure that those around

Are cared for on Christmas.

That brings me joy.

If I could trade a million dollars

And use them to care for my

Rather than give them useless items

Then I would go to the ends

The earth for them.

The way that people

Love each other slightly more

In December compared to every

Other day is quite bothersome.

There should be no day to day

Difference.
