[hometext] => Dedicated to Agnes Johnson (1948-2013) who passed away on March 6, 2013.
[bodytext] => Lots of people all over the world will celebrate the Yuletide.
This will be the seventh Christmas that has come around since you died.
We celebrated many Christmases together but we/'/ll never do that again.
Christmas is a time for peace on Earth and goodwill to all men.
It was nice that we celebrated Christmases while you were here.
But during the Christmas of 2012, I didn/'/t know the end was near.
If we could spend this Christmas together, it certainly would please me .
But that isn/'/t possible and Christmases aren/'/t as good as they used to be.
On Christmas Day, people should be with their families.
When we celebrated Christmas, it was always sure to please.
A person is never truly gone If he or she is somebody who people remember.
You/'/ll be with me in spirit even though I/'/ll be alone on the 25th of December.
When you died at the young age of 64, it was hard for me to understand it.
Merry Christmas Mom, you were one of the greatest mothers on the planet.

Sentimentality and love for your mother are certainly tangible here. So glad you posted this for us to read. Great work. Hugs and blessings as we approach the festive yet nostalgic season,

Heartwarming and heartfelt.
Christmas is never an easy time for those coping with grief and the passing of family. Sometimes others forget that during their own Christmas festivities
A timely reminder that Christmas can still be heartbreaking and we need to remember that.

Hey RJ,
Some of the best poetry is heartfelt, as you have posted here.
A lot said in a well-balanced rhyme scheme.
Christmas certainly amplifies loss and absence like no other holiday. Take care of yourself.
