Christmas Shelves

Christmas had come and gone,
Once again alone,

The Christmas tree stood tall,
Simply adored by all.

Many decorations on the shelves,
Packed by the elves,

Values and bargains galore,
Purchased at the store.

Days of Christmas shopping complete for another year,
Enjoying the days and nights that are dear.

Celebrations with relatives and friends,
Days and nights that we wish would never end.

Santa Claus returned to the north with his reindeer,
The next Christmas far rather than near.

Thankful to God for his loving care,
What a beautiful time of year and fair.
