The Busiest Time of the Year
There's no busier time of the year than now
A time to enjoy the company of family and friends
To renew old acquaintances and establish new ones
A time of love when we forget all the negatives
And enjoy all the positives that life has to offer
If it wasn't for this holiday season
We'd most likely all being living in the looney bin
Being spoon fed some mushy stuff
And carrying on conversations with imaginary friends
For us poets, carrying on conversations
With imaginary friends is quite normal
But for the average Jack or Jill on the street
It's a new and scary experience
The saving grace is that it's only a temporary thing
And eventually reality sets in
But until then, live it up and enjoy
This busiest, most heart warming time of the year
