Giant Christmas Lights, Rollerblades, And Electric Racecar Tracks Poem, by Dion P. Crown, at My poetic side

I remember a simpler time,

when gifts were toys.

There were no smart phones,

and there were no drones.

Everyone wanted a cordless,

remote control RC Racer,

or a supersoker.

I remember walking,

around the neighborhood,

with my dad,

admiring the houses,

on Christmas Eve.

Christmas lights were enormous,

and not holographic lights,

projected on the wall.

I remember when,

Old Ninja Turtle action figures,

Stretch Arm Strongs,

and rollerblades,

always made a good present.

Wow! It is hard to believe,

I remember these things.

(Sigh)

Yet, that was years ago.

Still, it is a blessing,

to now be able,

to buy gifts,

for my nieces and nephews.

Comment from author about the poem: This piece can be reflective and humorous. It is nice to celebrate. There is nothing wrong with giving gifts or receiving them. Still, we must never forget Christ's birth. Growing up on every Christmas as a child, my mother made sure that she read about Christ birth from the Bible. Have a Merry Christmas! Let there be Peace on earth. Persistence is key
