It Will Be Nice

it will be so sweet
when christmas takes a back seat
and avalanche ends

predictable rends
to credit card and pocket
new years time to look

for left over sales
while the bank accounts pale
stuff comes to the door

theres no room for more
so i buy six different ales
to unfurl the sails

and drift on the winds
while old man winter begins
his snow cold chagrin


stan sand

Merry Christmas Stan. I hope it is wonderful, and you are having a terrific time! Happy New Years also. It sounds like "old man winter" is going to begin a snowstorm after Christmas.
