No Joy For Them

Once again it's Christmas As festive times fill the air People Christmas shopping Moving about without care People talking and laughing Drinking their favorite lattes Having themselves a good time While misery lives not far away For many Christmas is a celebration A time for joy and cheer But let's not forget the people Surrounded by despair and fear Not enough food to feed their young ones Barely enough clothes to keep them warm All the time their hearing Those joyful Christmas songs But the joy of Christmas Is somehow lost on them Hopefully one day this life Will be one they can overcome
