Frenzied

***

I suppose we oldsters are to be envied

Not herding children that are frenzied

Christmas and all the rush

Everyone thinking that they must

Do all they think is required

All the actions get mired

Into one big holiday frenzy

Not anything I envy

But there is that nostalgia thing

Where school choirs did sing

Plays and performances cute

I do miss them, no dispute

It’s just not the same without them

I better quit before I’m glum

I still love Christmas to come

Shopping can make me go numb

But all in all I love these days

Observing is now my way.

Weekly Prompts Wednesday Challenge – Frenzied

  1. Yes, so true…none of the rushing around, hiding gifts…but like you say, I miss hearing little kids happily belting out Christmas tunes and even when I decide to watch them, the old Christmas shows don’t seem as magical. I’ll take this though over little kids and house hopping.
