The Best Christmas I Never Had

Daddy told me when I was young

That Christmas is haram.

My mother told me that as a Muslim,

Christmas is not the season to be jolly.

I never understood why

When I was a child;

I saw the turkeys on the TV,

Watched the kids run in the snow,

A Christmas tree with a mistletoe,

And some surprises down below.

I never truly understood why

When I was young

But I do know it now.

My parents were not anti-Christ

But they were just over-reacting.

Pardon my parents 

for their misconception,

They were just doing their job

But I do know the meaning now,

The best Christmas I never had.

To the Virgins, To Make Much of Time

by: Robert Herrick

GATHER ye rosebuds while ye may,

Old time is still a-flying:

And this same flower that smiles to-day

To-morrow will be dying.

The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun,

The higher he’s a-getting,

The sooner will his race be run,

And nearer he’s to setting.

                                              That age is best which is the first,

When youth and blood are warmer,

But being spent, the worse, and worst,

Times still succeed the former.

Then be not coy, but use your time,

And while ye may go marry:

For having lost but once your prime

You may for ever tarry.

Sun,

Big, bulky,

Burning, blazing, blistering,

Day, night, tears, drizzle,

Frosting, chilling, freezing,

Icy cold,

Rain.
