Paula Goldsmith Poet Rhyme

Christmas

"A King deserves His full name~Christmas. Xmas is not good enough." By Poet

I love smelling the home-baked cookies,
and eating all the wonderful goodies.
The tree is decorated with balls and lights,
beneath the nativity makes one look twice.
The word "Xmas" makes me see red,
it should be dead.
The word is "Christmas" to be spread,
do not be misled.
To the king,
gifts you can bring.
