Frosted Feelings

A peom about the holidays , past and present

By Matthew MccaheyPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

Huddling around the fire once more

Loving every minute on the floor

Before life became a bore

Back when my family I used to adore

Stuffing my face with ham and pie

Wishing I wouldnt have to say goodbye

And the weather wasn't so dry

The snow made me feel alive, oh what a high

Take me back to when I was but a boy

Hugging his new favorite toy

Oh how Christmas brought me such joy

When I used to be so coy

The holidays were never a chore

We didn't slam the door

I felt whole to my core

I could playfully roar

But the years went by becoming colder

And I watched my family grow older

My mom looks so frail at times, so I just holder

Watching that fire slowly smoulder

I want to use stories and life experiences to allow others to be open about their own.
