Let us start a new holiday
by word of mouth only
Let's start planning today
one for the sad, depressed and lonely
The theme will be;
"i am alive today and let tomorow come what may"
No gifts to buy, no cards to send
not lines to wait in, no money to spend
Just stop by unexpectedly upon a friend
or call someone who may be sick
to see if they are on the mend
No need to send a present
to someone you pretend to like
no worrying about the cost
if you spent enough, if you got it right
Just treat everyone you meet
like a long lost friend
Kindness goes a long way
and love never ends
but shallow words wrapped around a gift
is not what this holiday meant when it first began
over the years the meaning has been lost
by the greed and avarice of Man...
