My Tinsel is Tangled
The Macy’s Day parade and National Dog Show brought us cheer,
But Thanksgiving is over, and Christmas season is here,
Now decorations and gifts are on display everywhere,
Should I buy them a toy or something to wear?
The hectic hustle and bustle are truly real,
You must shop until you drop to get the best deal,
To find the perfect gift for someone is particularly rare,
And with the buying, baking, and wrapping, there’s no time to spare,
Christmas gatherings have me pondering what to wear,
Which gets my tinsel in a tangle, it’s a stressful affair,
Oh, I do wish to enjoy this season of partridge and pear,
But I’m just getting by on a wing and a prayer,
I’d rather stay home and sit quietly in my chair,
What happened to the childhood days, free of care,
Am losing my childhood wonder? I declare,
So, I must warn you to be very aware,
Don’t get caught up in the Christmas frenzy, beware!
You will be left with only a heap of despair,
The secular ways are meant to ensnare,
Joy should replace all the Christmas-ing,
Joy to the world- a newborn King!
I remind you again of the one true reason,
For this blessed and holy Christmas season.
