I have a hard time at Christmas…
It triggers many memories of old…
Like the time I caught my dad…
‘Just trying on mom’s dress’ as I was told…
He had been drinking the eggnog…
Since sometime earlier in the day…
Then he started singing Broadway show tunes…
Dancing and acting all happy and gay…
......
I was happy,
TV nightly,
As a family,
Simple pleasures,
‘Any Umbrellas?’
Family holidays,
I was happy,
Perhaps the world was happy,
......
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas...
A time for love and joy...
When Santa starts The Wish List...
To bring everyone that perfect toy...
But there are some kids who misbehaved...
Who were naughty throughout the year...
Your name might be missing from Santa’s List...
You know who you are, oh dear...
