For the single parents out there...

Christmas Heart

 

The Christmas tree lights glitter

The presents are all wrapped bright

She tucked the kiddies in early

They snuggled in for the night

 

She sips a glass of red wine

Listens to radio carolers sing

Stares at the space beside her wondering

What the New Year will bring

 

She once had a man who loved her

The father of her children two

Somehow he found another

Now her Christmas has turned blue

 

The teardrops spill unheeded

Leave jeweled tracks along her cheek

Lays her glass on the table

Climbs up the stairs to take a peak

 

The little girl is curled up

In her little brother’s bed

Lost in a dream of Santa

From the good night words she said

 

She wipes away her teardrops

A smile breaks the tears apart

She has found her Merry Christmas

In the love that’s in her heart!

Oh Felix, this is so beautiful and heartfelt! It's the reality of so many lives and it's great that you've acknowledged it, particularly at this time. It's wonderful how you convert the yearning love, into the love that really matters:
'She wipes away her teardrops
A smile breaks the tears apart
She has found her Merry Christmas
In the love that’s in her heart!'
Well done .. I loved it!
Love & friendship dear friend

Even through all the struggling, the disappointments, the lonliness and the deep sadness, the love of and for your child remains the greatest gift one can ever have. Beautiful write, Felix and so sweet of you to think of the single parents who often struggle to bring Christmas to their families.
Take care,
Sherry
