The lights are held with
masking tape
Toothpicks hold the
baubles
The tree is made of
cardboard
And try as we might, it
wobbles
Pennies pinched and
couches search
Was not enough this year
No shopping trips or
wrapping gifts
Yet still we're filled
with cheer
The house is warm, our
bills all paid
Good health we still enjoy
With friends and family
all around
Our gratitude employ
Tis the season, deck the
halls
Familiar carols play
I hope all's well with you
and yours
Come this Christmas day

Not every Christmas is as grand or extravagant as the others. I've had my fair share of both. What about you?
