"all year long" | Christmas Poetry Collection: Poem 8

Happy December, my friends

here’s a thought I had

let’s not keep these celebrations

for one month only

but all year long

let’s fill January with the 

spirit of new beginnings

like the sun rising over the horizon

may February be filled with hope 

that the year will treat you well

in March remember to 

love your neighbor and yourself

let’s say one thing we're grateful for 

every day in April

and look at the little things that 

matter during May

in June let's celebrate how far we've 

come as we reach the halfway mark

and may July remind you to have 

grace with yourself for the 

mistakes you've made

in August, let's alter new year's 

resolutions that we didn't complete

without feeling guilty

during September look at the 

memories you've already made

and may October show you that 

forgiveness is important, not because 

someone deserves it, but because your 

heart deserves to have peace

in November be proud of who you are 

and how you've grown

cheers to December, a month that 

brings all of this together 

and a reminder of your strength and 

bravery with a peppermint hot chocolate 

and christmas cookies on the side

Happy December, my friends

here’s a thought I had

let’s not keep these celebrations

for one month only

but all year long

 about the poem 

Christmas can be a time of reflection, gratitude, love, reconciliation, forgiveness, and peace, and I wanted to write a poem that talks about how these things should be celebrated all year long, not just in December. 

Happy Holidays x
