I was a little uncertain if I should do a prompt with the holidays in full swing but I decided to go for it! This prompt comes to you curtsey of Morpethroad. This week you many find yourself reminiscing about holidays past. Maybe you’re spending the holidays with family and friends who are chalk full of wonderful embarrassing stories about you. Maybe you find yourself nostalgic while elbow deep in a box of festive decorations. Maybe you find yourself feeling homesick while trying to replicate traditional family dishes. Maybe you find yourself laughing at old photographs and/or videos. This week I invite you to share a story about holidays past. I say story but of course poems, artwork, cards, music, photos and all other forms of media are welcome.
Happy Holidays everyone!
That one was a challenge – my ideal holiday would probably seem boring to others, so I went for fiction! 🙂 🙂
Mine probably would too mainly I am excited about the food lol
Yep, food is one of my focuses too – that and sleep!! 🙂 🙂
Sleep is just what I am about to do now yay!
Happy Holidays to you, too!
Thanks =)
Happy Holidays and have a Wonderful Year ahead!
Thank you so much you as well =)

Christmas
So many
Christmas memories
In my pack
Too heavy to lift
Too heavy to carry
Memories galore
Some good
Some not
As a child
I knew
It was pretend
But fun to play along
Watch the old folks
Eyes light up
To see
The children
Laugh and play
The surprise
Of it all
Christmas
Just you and me
Full of love
Like a gentle
Nest
A child
Of our own
To surprise
And please
You
Were gone
All was dark
Cold
Alone
I started over
Not the same
Still another day
To give thanks
Years have passed
No it’s not the same
Will never be
But still they call
It Christmas
Perhaps it
Is the day
That marks
What was
What will be
Holds all
The memories
Some good
Some not
This is beautiful and heartfelt, touching and sad
Here’s mine. A bit less touching or nostalgic than some of the others 😉 http://jeremymilburn.wordpress.com/2013/12/22/prompt-35-holiday-stories-graduation/
