The Day After Thanksgiving

It's the day after Thanksgiving, and all across town, people getting up early, shopping malls bound. Sleigh gassed up, and purses are too, don't forget those credit cards, what ever you do. Sneakers on the feet, gotta move real fast, sales start early, the goodies won't last. Santa will be waiting, perched high on his seat, screaming children, and after this, he is sure to be beat. When, from a store close by, someone began to shout, they will sell you a gift, but there is nobody to wrap. Some started fussing, where are the elves, not too many toys left on the shelves. Ho, Ho, Ho, came a familiar sound, I will do the wrapping, somebody help me down. I gained some weight during the year, eating real late, and drinking the cheer. So, let's get this season started, with laughter please, just look at the presents, and all the beautiful trees. Ho, Ho, Ho.....Merry Christmas
