A Special Christmas

A SPECIAL CHRISTMAS Families should be together on Xmas day Some kids’ folks are wealthy They work abroad, but they never Fail to come at Xmas for a whole week and see the kids Their house is specially decorated for homecoming Like a huge icing-covered cake A professional Santa is hired, (electronic sleighbells,) To perform ho-ho-hos and give out toys At the big party It is excellent to see. Some kids’ folks are ordinary They work in the local steel plant Their houses have no special icing To show it’s Xmas, no circus tricks The sleighbells are done by dad Amusing the kids, jangling keys on a shoestring Mum gives her attention as they sing and play And joke and do yard-work together every day Xmas is not special, it is every day for them.
