Christmas from a third world view (acrostic)

by deeplydesturbed   Dec 16, 2016


"Children run and
hide away.
Right this instant
I must insist!
Santa won't be here this year,
terrorists are shooting again."
Mothers wipe away the tears
as children lose all hope of
seeing yet another day

    N, another excellent acrostic. Yours is also deep with a lot of food for thought. We tend to forget (conveniently) that so.many people don't have the luxury of a safe home and plenty of food and gifts. Sad state of affairs we live these days.
