All Christmas Out

It is December 26th just in time another Christmas gone time to unwind No more eggnog or yule log No more bright lights or caroling at night No more fruit cake or candy canes Just piles of colorful wrapping paper remains It was good with presents under the Christmas tree It was great helping those in need The church celebrations were delightful All the cheerful decorations a sight full The children so dear with family who care Festive foods yummy treats too much to eat All through November into December, Christmas music played Every where every place sales for the holiday Back Friday, Cyber Monday, spend spend spend Receiving that third ugly sweater with it you win Sending and receiving Christmas cards Searching for addresses near and far The street corner Santa's ringing bells Christmas movies and TV show marathons season filled Wrapping presents switching to gift bags All so expensive but it seems less than you had Remembering Christmases and love ones of Christmas past Hoping for new Christmas memories to last Taking down decorations from storage attic Decorating over and over like an addict Than taking them down and storing again Christmas traditions never ever end All for this holiday born the savior we yearned To the world his sacrifice our salvation earned Christmas has meaning we sometimes forget about and with that stay grateful and never be all Christmas out.
