XMAS CARDS
It's time to write those cards and choose a verse.
The list gets longer and the writing worse.
This year, however, add on an EXTRA LINE.
"Hello, dear friend, hope you're feeling fine.
"How about meeting for a coffee or a meal?
"Could chat about the old days and how you feel."
Maybe one day a week you could set aside,
To go on a new route, just for the ride.
Go shopping or just visit some special place,
Whatever it is, make it a special case.
The change of surroundings show that you care.
If you're lucky like me and can bus anywhere.
Makes a change for them from the daily chores.
Lessens the time spent behind closed doors.
Especially at Christmas and any other time,
Just take time to add that EXTRA LINE.
