Celebrate Christmas Day
By Stan Gilbert
Weeks leading up to Christmas are as busy as they can be,
Shoppers are buying
nearly all the things they can see,
Presents for the
young ones such as games for the boys,
Dolls and such for
the girls and many sorts of toys,
A necklace for the
wife, a pair of stockings for Mother,
What do they get
Dad? They will think of something or other
A Christmas cake
they must have and plenty of nuts
A turkey or a goose
of that there is no ifs or buts,
A pudding and lots
of sweets to fill them with Christmas cheer,
Christmas crackers
and most of all lots and lots of beer,
Don’t worry about
the cost they never worry or fret
Although they know
full well it will run them into debt
They never think of
the destitute, the sick or the poor,
Nor do they think of
what the celebration is really for,
If only they would
think it is for celebrating Jesus’ birth,
When he came down
from Heaven to live here on earth,
To take all of mans
wicked sins and evil ways away,
That is really why
we celebrate on Christmas Day
