Feels Different These Days
The North Pole feels colder these days
The stars seem dimmer, and the snow less pure.
Even the elves, once bustling in cheer
sit in silence, unsure of their purpose
Once, the children believed…
their letters fulfilled wishes and dreams,
that Father Christmas would soar across the night sky
with Rudolph’s red nose, and his other reindeer friends
that their snowmen would start talking
But now, the world is different.
Children no longer sit by the windows,
staying up all night for a glimpse of his sleigh
Now, they sit in silence,
heads bent low, eyes fixed on screens.
