The lost magic

By kaz4sim

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Happy Christmas mum!!  The children  merrily shoutI’m laughing so hard as they all dance aboutWatching them opening their gifts with such pleasureThese are the moments I silently treasureIt’s been worth all the wait, the blood sweat and tearsCos these little moments I’ll cherish for yearsI’ve got what I wished for, oh mum come and seeLook at all this, this can’t all be for meI must be real special, because he’s left me so manyOh yes my little darling, you’re worth every pennyI remember this well, their belief in the magicNow it’s all over, it’s ever so tragicThey’ve all realised Santa’s only make believeIt’s broken my heart, for those moments I grieveThey still get excited, but it’s never the sameOf waiting for Santa, and playing the gameI’ve known all these years that this time would comeBut I’ve secretly dreaded it, now I’m ever so glumCherish the ‘Magic’ time, for it wont surely lastChildren turn into teenagers ever so fast!!
