Christmas

Christmas

Christmas is four weeks away

I’m getting a bit excited

Being excited surprises me

I’ve never really liked it

New Year is my favourite time

When things are fresh and new

So what’s with all this Christmas cheer?

When it usually makes me blue

I’m planning how to dress my tree

And to whom to send a card

I’m spotting gifts I want to send

This is the first year it’s not hard

I’m looking forward to partying

With friends both old and new

Say farewell to the worst of years

So long, goodbye, adieu.
