Christmas Morning
By:Tania Wilde
Frostbitten cheeks in a snowdrift hill,
through the white, tiny hands do appear.
Frost's chilled embrace dove in for the kill,
a life now squeezed from the dear.
Rags drapped from her shoulders,
proved not to withstand.
No shoes on her feet,
and no gloves on her hands.
She'd lit her last match as she drifted to sleep,
finally at last no more tears would she weep.
A last Christmas without warmth,
was the wish she did make.
For this Christmas morning,
she would never wake.
