I was asked to post this again as everyone did not get the first post. A poem by Dan Patrick 2014 The Day After Christmas It was the day after Christmas When all through the house The kids were on the computer Using their mouse Mom in her kerchief Was off to the store Looking for bargains She would find to be sure With all the kids playing And the gifts all unwrapped I laid on the couch To grab a quick nap No dreams of sugar plums did I have while I slept Instead I dreamed Christmas bills And my credit card debt When out in the yard There arose such a clatter My neighbor was taking down his lights When he fell off his ladder Out the front door I flew in a flash Tripped over the dog And had a great crash I leaped to my feet And what did I see My neighbor laughing And pointing at me He whistled and shouted And called me by name Hey Patrick do you know Whos winning the game And then in a twinkling I heard such a crowd My family had arrived And boy were they loud We had a great dinner And shared lots of laughs All telling favorite stories Of Christmases long past Christmas is for children Some people say But every person has the spirit To share on this day A spirit of kindness, Of giving and more Its not about presents Or Santa at the store Its about Gods love for us And our fellow man Of lifting them up When they need a helping hand Its about a small baby Born in a stall Who came as a King And died for us all Christmas has a meaning For each in their own way Of faith, fun,and family On a very special day And as the evening ended And it was time to say good by I hugged my family tight With a twinkling my eye Another Christmas was over A New Year about to begin Im already counting the days To when Christmas comes again Their voices trailing off Aa they drove out of sight I shouted out one more time Merry Christmas to all And to all a good night
