Frosted Windows

Gazing out at winter Frost on the pane Wishing for happiness Laughter and not pain Siblings in tears Daddy drunk and mummy blind No Santa to come this year Only fear Holding them close Praying all to be right We survived somehow Mummy made not the night The coppers took daddy away We hid, then ran away Come see us when we arrive in town The circus is fun Now we smile and don’t frown We miss you mummy We visit when we around
