A melancholy Christmas...
Today my mom made dinner for me.
And while we were visiting she was busy making cakes and other goodies for a Christmas party. She asked me to play a Elvis Christmas CD while I ate. So while I was eating she said "I wish your father and Elvis were still alive". Of course I felt the same way. Anyway the mood turned melancholy. Not long after, Elvis' song "Holly Leaves And Christmas Trees" came on, and the words just seemed to fit. Holly Leaves And Christmas Trees Somewhere in, - in the distant night I hear Christmas bells The gentle snow keeps falling down on people Who are homeward bound That's the way it's always been The circle never really ends Christmas seems to come and go From the place that I don't know Holly leaves and Christmas trees It's that time of year Lights aglow and misletoe Don't mean a thing when you're not here As I walk this lonely street The sound of snow beneath my feet I'll think how it use to be Holly leaves and Christmas trees Use to mean so much to me Holly leaves and Christmas trees This thread isn't to bring anyone's feelings down. It's just a reminder that most of us have stories like this about those we miss. It seems to hit harder around the holidays for most of us I think. Anyone care to share a similar story? |
