Seasonal Confusion

Football games and parades And naps after the big dinner For all but cooks and cleanup crew, That's just the way it is. The big shopping day on Friday As dictated by the season, Confusion and maxed credit cards As we dine on yesterday's leftovers. Thanksgiving is always slighted As we hold our breath for Christmas, Trying to please, remember colors and sizes, Wanting to cut up the plastic. Too much food, too much drink Means the yearly resolution of diet; Baking we don't do the rest of the year Is left for the twelfth month of glitz.
