T’was two days after Christmas, and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even the kids! The stockings still hung on the chimney with care that Santa had filled just two days before. The kids are now restless, they know for sure, that the holidays will end and school will begin.
I in my boots and jacket to keep warm, see that the storm left the yard to be cleared of leaves that had blown from the trees the night before.
Mom is resting with her feet in the air, is glad that the wrapping and ribbons are no longer near. When all of a sudden, there rose a sound, there go the kids arguing over the Wii! Well that don’t beat all, the leaves will wait as I referee!
This year is all but complete, it’s luster and shine all but worn down. A New Year’s in sight, all fancy and bright, where new goals are in sight like deer stunned in the light!
May this New Year be better than the last, maybe Santa will remember that bribes do count!
