"Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not it's goal;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.
Life is but an empty dream,
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem."
HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW -

Christmas Time Is Here

New decade it seems like we've been played,
Christmas approaching fast kindly change the date,
With all the unrest we're upset but still blessed,
We're supposed to love each other I'm so not impressed,
From the lockdown to bodies lying on the ground,
Wearing face mask just to hide our frowns,
Before it's yuletide many eyes would have cried,
Would we be singing songs, would it snow worldwide ?
And on the mountain side, will the sleigh bells ring ?
Will there be boxes on the trees, will it still be a thing ?
From Black Lives Matter to all lives matter,
Now it's worldwide, do African lives matter ?
Police brutality ! , we had to protest,
A lot of things on our mind, we had to clear our chest,
And now the holiday the best time of the year,
Can't feel it anymore it's like it disappeared,
Will there be Thanksgiving with all this misgivings ?
Would you send out gifts, would you visit the prison ?
Trending hashtags authorities have to listen,
To those who passed on it has to be for a reason,
Mary did you know that it would be like this ?
Under the mistletoe we sit and reminisce,
It was just last Christmas the sounds of a drummer boy,
Let's all rise up it has all been a decoy
