By Christmas Day each father
and mother, also known as Santa and Mrs. Claus,
should have fulfilled “Dear Santa” letters
and other wish lists. They overspend, but for a great cause!
Expensive foods, grandiose home improvements,
and decorations are added. Guests will be so impressed.
Bank balances shrink; credit cards get maxed out,
but—By George!—mom, dad, and kids will be well dressed.
Money’s nil. Overindulgent purchasers question
their sanity: “Why do we do this every year,
spend way beyond our means? Recovery takes months.”
Once again, they’ve robbed themselves of Christmas cheer.
Responsible spending transforms unrealistic views
of how the holiday season should be. We can decorate,
enjoy tasty food, and buy gifts without spending a fortune.
With Christmas in our hearts, we can sincerely celebrate.

Finally, Christmas is here
Snowflakes are falling like diamonds they glisten
Carolers singing for all who do listen
Tinsel and garland are seen every where
Church bells are ringing this evening to share
For it’s Christmas, it’s Christmas
a time when we all spread good cheer
It’s Christmas, it’s Christmas
our favourite time of the year
With the stockings all hung
and the tree in the stand
Awaiting Kris Kringle
to come to our land
For it’s Christmas, it’s Christmas
Finally, Christmas is here
The gifts are all wrapped, there’s a wreath on the door
Last minute purchasers down at the store
Children in windows they stare to the sky
Watching for reindeer to go flying by
For it’s Christmas, it’s Christmas
a time when we all spread good cheer
It’s Christmas, it’s Christmas
our favourite time of the year
With the stockings all hung
and the tree in the stand
Awaiting Kris Kringle
to come to our land
For it’s Christmas, it’s Christmas
Finally Christmas is here
Merry Christmas Everyone

Apartments are expensive
With an extra monthly fee
For maintenance, which I can
Understand, to a degree.
But in an advertisement
For a condo that’s for sale,
A factor was included
That would make some people bail.
Along with monthly maintenance,
The purchasers would pay
Nine hundred for utilities
But, more outrageous, they
Would have to shell out, with no choice,
(Get set for Oh, my goshing!)
A fee of almost fifty bucks
For monthly window washing!
Perhaps it’s people just like me
Who prompted such expenses.
My windows, lacking such demands,
Display the consequences.
