Christmas is a festival celebrated in the month of winter. In many poems the poets have associated winter with death. Here are a few lines quoted from a famous poem RING OUT THE OLD, RING IN THE NEW by Lord Tennyson:
"Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow;
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
The flying cloud, the frosty light:
The year is dying in the night;
Ring out, wild bells, and let him die."
