Diluted To Polluted

Christmas Day will never be the same
Whilst companies who will only think gain
         It's charms now diluted
         Commercially polluted 
Frankly, the fat cats are solely to blame

Audrey Haick Date: 11/19/2010 2:51:00 PM LOL.. A perfect entry for Carolyn's "Commercialized Humor Contest", James. The bottom line is always greed. With a little foresight maybe they'll remember that cliche, "You will reap what you sow". Love, Audrey Login to Reply
