Christmas Blues

What used to be my favorite time
Is so different this year,
The first time since he was born
He cannot be here.

And so I have the Christmas blues
As I have never had before,
No Christmas trimmings will there be
When I ache clear to my core.

The Christmas gifts his dad and I
Did buy ourselves this year,
Are plots of ground beside him there
As we did shed a tear.

The Christmas blues this did not help
Tho our minds are now at ease,
For we know we will be beside him there
One day to rest in peace.
