The Days Before Christmas

The days before Christmas It was about two days before Christmas.And dad was hanging the lights on the roof. Things were going just great at the time. When all hell broke loose. Dad he fell through the roof. And broke both his legs. The doctor told him it would be six weeks before he could come home. Mom was at the mall buying last min gifts. When she fell on the ice and broke her arm. I found myself in the kitchen making pies for Christmas dinner.When the cat jumps on the table. And ate the pie fillings. I went to turn on the tree lights. When a light blew out and caught the tree on fire. And burnt house down. The neighbors they brought us food to eat. It was pizza and wings.Because the dog took the turkey. It was all gone. At the hotel I step out to go to the store. But when I return our gifts was gone. The police when they left said "Merry Christmas to you have a good night". My reply to the best I could was Ba humbug to Christmas I believe in the Easter bunny.
