Analysis of Christmas Time



Mommy it's christmas time
Yes it is christmas time
As I think to myself
It's christmas time
There will be no present's made by an elf
But it's christmas time
There will be no tree
For our christmas time
I am a single mother and no job for thee
So it will feel like no christmas time
There will be no holiday cheers
Because it does not feel like christmas time
I keep on thinking of all the holiday tears
Because I can-not give her a christmas time
All the fears
For christmas time

I wrote this poem for all the single parents
That cant give their children the christmas
That they deserve!
