He's Alone At Christmas.
I walked up the laneway.
There was a big box off to the side.
I heard some one yell.......
I said can I help you.
He said yes do you have a light.
I said I'm sorry I do not smoke.
I walked up the laneway.
I had to get closer to that box.....
He looked like he hadn't ate in months.
I said do you need some money.
I can help you out a bit.
Maybe get you a sandwich.
I walked up the laneway.
His voiced sounded familar......
But I didn't know from where.
Then I realized it was my Dad.
He looked like a car wreck.
He's alone at Christmas.
I took him home with me.
This year we celebrated Christmas together.
It was the best year of our lifes.
Merry Chistmas Dad.
You know I love you so.
