The Blow of Traditions
Designed as reminders
of special meanings,
but do they really
hold the magic of meaning?

Foods created in specific ways,
decorations to bring the cheer,
gifts given to bring thoughtfulness,
actions taken to share donations.

Too many times, foods
get created with ego in mind,
the competition
of the greatest skill.

Gifts are costing more and more
as competition comes in who gives most.
The competition of the greatest
where who it is that gives the best.

Materialism has taken over thought
where it’s all about the costs.
The higher the ego
in the design of logos.

There comes a time
when simple is best.
The act of kindness,
the idea of thoughtfulness.

Where costs have no place
in the acts of sharing and caring,
bringing laughter and joy
without the feelings of negativity.
