Just For Christmas

By Darren Hobson

This book is all about Christmas and what it means to the poet, in what should be the greatest time of the year can be quickly poisioned by greed and envy. This poet dusts off a few memories so we can learn exactly what he thought and now thinks of Christmas, with the use of poetry he paints a very detailed picture.

This is another feather in the hat for this new indie poet.

For Christmas 2015 the poet has inserted a new chapter to the delight of all Santas little helpers worldwide.

It is Just Another Holiday.

Greetings from your favourite poet, hopefully this book will be out before Christmas and therefore I can say seasonal greetings to all my readers. The poems included here were all mainly written at the end of November, only two were written in 2013 (Seasonal Kiss and The day…) they are obviously about Christmas and the festive season, how things change from childhood to being a young man, how the gloss of Christmas loses its shine when you are a young man. I admit the first poem is a bit grim and negative but do not worry they brighten up after that. I do not want to come across having an ego but I just wanted to share with everybody what Christmas has meant to me in the past and at the moment, the difference between the cultures of England and Italy, the way Christmas is just one big fat commercial pudding.

This my friends is a free collection of poetry, it might not be the best poetry I have written, but it is my gift to you, to say thank you for your support over these last months.

At this point I would like to send you best wishes for this festive season from me and my muse Elisa, just remember not to exaggerate too much!

It is the time of year,

Where we should be,

Full of festive cheer,

And the
