Thoughts about Christmas and the Holiday Season

Christmas is coming and the geese are getting fat
Don’t be like them, just eat a little of this or that
Exercise is always the best thing to do
Dancing, running, and maybe a little walking too

But, most important above all the rest
Is to enjoy your time off, can you pass this test
Prop up your feet and maybe read a good book
Shop for extreme left over bargains, maybe try a new look

Sleep in later if you stay up past twelve
Because everyone knows the work being done by the elves
Visit the family or a friend or two
Go out to lunch when the big cooking is through

So much to do before Christmas and other holidays are here
After it’s over relax, you deserve it my dear
As for the men we know how you love putting together the toys
For it’s a known fact that you will always play like little boys

As for this special Christmas season
Remember to celebrate for the real reason
A baby that was born so long ago
Placed in a manager while the animals laid low

The wise men came from a far
And shepherds followed a shining star
Angels sang from Heaven above
The world would soon learn how much we are loved

Somewhere in the darkness of night
A family will come together, and candles they will light
Remembering and celebrating with love, this holiday season
The world unites together for whatever their reason

Not just this blessed season, but each and every day
Say a prayer for those in service who can’t be home, keep them safe while they are away
Pray for our country, may things soon take on a fresh new start
Give to the unfortunates, love from your heart




As the celebrating of the season and vacation time will soon come to an end
How time will fly by, and we will be working once again
And we can be thankful we have a job to come back to
No matter how hard the work, it’s a blessing for me and for you

Make holiday memories with good times together, share the laughter, and have some fun
May this New Year bring to each of us, peace on earth and good will towards everyone
