A very meaningful and sadly true write with a wonderful presentation....I wish I could sit and argue, and I'm sure there are places that it is not true-where materialism has not won out, but I must agree with many of your lines in green....all we can do is strive to light our little part and hope it catches on!! ;) :) Thanx for the write, ma'am! :) Yvette

Thanks for your complimentary review. The more I see technology changing the world, the more I feel the urgent need for more connection with our kids. Now, commerce is replacing interpersonal communication skills, as we all become zyborgs.
Hugs, Trisha

Hello. This is a very clever entry for your .. The Holidays... contest prompt. You use a philosophical approach to present your point in this verse. I love the artwork.
Al the best,

What I see happening in the world is sad. In Western culture, the true reason for the holiday is being diminished. Worship has shifted to. $ and our kids are not getting the personal connection they deserve because toys which replace parental time. Many people also are depressed because of other problems. Thank you for reviewing.
Hugs, Trisha

Hello Friend!
I totally embrace the sentiments that you express in your well-crafted free verse poem. I so want to embrace all of the good that comes packaged in Christmas, but I look around me, and there is so much strident madness! So...I make Christmas in my heart - and try to live what I believe all year long.
I love that you wrote your words in the shape of a Christmas tree...not certain if that is aok with free verse, but it is with me!
Happiest of Holidays!
Thank you for sharing!
