Her Last Holiday -- Lei
Having been alone for Yuletide
On New Year’s morn, she stared outside
Neighbors were packing lights away
To place in storage, where they’d stay
For such décor, she’d lost her taste
As celebrating seemed a waste
And she knew well this was her last
Her heart belonged to Christmas past
