Is Christmas so broken and well past repair
Why is there no Carol singing or snowfalling here?
Has commercialisation now taken its toll?
Leaving many with memories of better years gone
I think it’s merely grown up in a different age
And it’s magical still in many strange ways
Although world economics leaves millions so poor
We are perhaps now tasked with opening new doors
Is it not now about time for a simpler ‘Noel’?
With each giving less are we thought of less well
It’s another year gone in just a few days
So think of others not self and of more caring ways
Is Christmas so broken and well past repair
No it’s great this ‘New Christmas’ - I’m walking on air!
