Twas the night before Christmas, a.k.a Christmas Eve
We made it through dinner and nobody heaved
I threw the boys in the tub and got them all clean
While hubby washed the dishes until there was a sparkley sheen

When No Flowers Bloom
When no flowers bloom,
When you look at the moon,
And no feelings come to you

Never real, never there
You think you don’t care -
Think again.
It hurts, you know
The pain – it’s [...]
