[bodytext] => Where Is Nan This Christmas? I look at the photograph once more At the image that strikes me to the core The happy smiling faces there Carry not the slightest care Would that they knew the truth. Its Christmas time and all about Young children dance and scream and shout Yet I sit here upon the chair And long for those who are not there To share with me this joyous time. What right have we to bark and fight? With all this wonderment and light And what is harder for you than To answer kids who want their nan Around them at this festive time? It’s time to put a stop to this And even if we cannot kiss I have to see the grandkids now If only you would now allow My breaking heart screams out to you. How long can this lie keep on going The lies to those who end up knowing Nothing of their nan so near Who’s desolate and loves them dear For they are victims of our making. Now is the time to make the peace For all concerned a just release. Come take my love of you once more And enter through my welcome door For family to me means more than life.
