Christmas

At the last Month of the Year,
When the birthday of Christ is near,
Every Kid talks of Santa,
Yet the fireworks are always louder.


Blue and White Collar workers seek vacation 
From Employers, with skilful persuasion.
The mood in offices is lighter,
Yet the fireworks are always louder


Every music shop becomes Christian
As an anthology of Christmas hymns they maintain.
Traveling Expenses go higher,
Yet the fireworks are always louder


Exchange of Gifts is at its Peak,
Sadist Bosses turn meek,
So Cold is the weather,
Yet the fireworks are always louder

On the Special twenty-fifth,
The fireworks take a pinnacle lift.
Kids about their gifts incessantly chatter,
Yet the fireworks are always louder.

this is a really NEAT poem. I love your repeating line, the fireworks are always louder. it's original and clever. Congrats for your HM. I would have put this one with the top ten because it makes me really want to know about the country where these fireworks take place!
