Christmas Indecision
Christmas Indecision
Is it my turn this year
No it’s yours
Shall we say 3
Let’s make it 4
Is Aunt Joan coming or not
I’d rather not say for sure
Christmas comes but once a year
As does the great family indecision
We’ve all got lives
But that can’t explain
Why we can’t decide whether to visit
Cousin Lorraine
Sheila’s not talking
To Kevin or Ben
And my Brother’s got re-married, yet again
For me the decision’s simple
Straight or on the rocks
I just need to find a driver and a new pair of socks
Children are happy
Playing cardboard games
The frenzy of paper unpleasant
The pace of life unrepentant
Hope this year the politics are tame

This is a gem. Tell me it took about thirty minutes to write. It’s brimming with pure energy!
