'Twas the day before Christmas
and all through our house,
Computers were humming
(A noise hard to douse)...
Yet,
we paused (and reflected)
on
how blessed this year's been:
Times
simply grew better,
compared
to 'back when'.
Though,
there's still gentle tugging
at
both of our heartstrings...
Like
angels' wings sprouting
when
hearing fine bells ring.
We
pondered this mystery,
For
what is was worth:
[Were
we simply discounting
a
legendary birth?]
Then
it came to us both,
and
we knew why we wondered:
Why
some 'spirit' had dampened;
certain
'joy' tossed asunder.
Our kids were now grown,
way past sugarplum folly;
There'd be no more toy drums,
nor lacy-dressed dollies.
No
fighting about "who"
gets
to place the tree's top-star;
Nor
competing over which boy
was
nature's next rock-star.
But
all is not lost,
'cause
we gained our cute Jimmy,
Who
croons X-mas tunes
while
perfecting his shimmy !!!
Jimmy's X-mas Shimmy
