Christmas Countdown Poem 2024: 2. Where Has This Year Gone


Gone are the leaves,
And the sparrows,
Here come the geese,
And the robins.
***
Past are the days on the beach,
Now we dream of snow fights,
And the warm fireside nights,
Where old friends we will greet.
***
The season of joy is here,
Time to spread cheer,
Wish a Merry Christmas,
And a Happy New Year.
