Holidays may bring upon an old “friend”. Â Here is a poem I wrote about it, and a song my friend Nashville Joe wrote. Â He lives in Florida!
HOLIDAY BLUES
©2013 Diana Rasmussen
Holiday blues
poisonous thoughts
paralyzing fears
unrealistic expectations
wrapped with bows
stockings filled
with sadness
hanging on the
chimney with care
red and green
lights blinking
feelings on and off
candy cane dreams
garland and bows
tinsel trappings
frozen in time
Click on Nashville Joe to hear his great Christmas Song CHRISTMAS BLUES!
