Christmas Time!

When it comes to Christmas, I can be a bit of a Scrooge. My daughter wrote this poem to capture her father's feelings about the season.  However, the photo seems to have caught me in a good mood.

 

Christmas Time!

 

          By Christa Troester

 

Christmas time, Christmas time

The roads are filled with traffic

Christmas time, Christmas time

Everyone's busy wreaking havoc

Christmas time, Christmas time

Everyone's busy hurrying

Christmas time, Christmas time

No time for anything but worrying

 

There are Christmas songs everywhere

The same old songs filling the air

The same old songs buzzing in my head

The songs that fill me with Christmas dread

 

There are decorations all around

On the ceiling and on the ground

There's even tinsel in my beard

Does no one else find this weird?

 

Christmas time, Christmas time

No one seems to care a thing

Christmas time, Christmas time

All they want to do is sing

Christmas time, Christmas time

Everyone's honking like geese

Christmas time, Christmas time

All I want is Christmas PEACE!
