Did You Get the Christmas Card I Sent

So many games...so many games.
     Which one would you like to play?
I know let's play " The Obligation Game ".
     The rules are simple...I say ashamed.
Have you played this game?...
     let's be honest...I won't tell.
          nor will I go out and ring a bell.
It starts by counting who gave to you...
     now here is the next thing that you do.
You rate their gift or card from 1 to 10...
     then on the obligation wheel you give a spin...
          to find out what you give back...
               which doesn't take a lot of tact.
The spirit of giving seems to be what this lacks.
So...in the spirit...I wish for you...
     A Merry Christmas and God's blessings too!!
