Christmas poem

A Christmas Poem

It was days before Christmas
I hadn’t bought anything yet
Everyone is probably
Done all there shopping I bet.
So today I’ll go shopping
I can hardly wait
To go to the store
The pushing the shoving
I can’t believe I didn’t go before.
What if I get there
And the thing I wanted was wrong
What if the thing I wanted is gone.
I need to buy the perfect gift
The people driving are all crazy
So could you give me a lift
But then I might just forget about going
Because I don’t want to loose my mind
But then again it won’t take long to grab the first thing I find.
Nobody seems to have a Christmas list
And now I’m cold and blue.
I’ll be standing in line forever
Until someone gives me the flu
Then I’ll spend
Christmas at home in bed
I could have saved a bit of money
If I made their presents instead.
