At this time of year,
I will shed a tear,
Christmas brings memories I treasure,
Nothing can make them disappear,
...
No-one can deny,
Time does fly by,
When young you don't really care,
At oldies you sigh,
...
It is my quest,
To do my best,
In addition, to avoid any strife,
Filled with zest,
...
What they have got,
You may not,
What is it that makes you jealous?
A gift they've bought,
...
Though some will deny,
We humans are mad,
There's an endless supply,
Of both good and bad,
...
As well as strife,
There are joys in life,
Think of them when you're feeling sad,
For each event,
...
The news is polished,
The truth disappears,
Slavery's been abolished?
For hundreds of years.
...
Alcohol kills,
As well as pills,
Both legal and illegal too,
Without any frills,
...
Creating displeasure,
Some people enjoy,
To some it's their treasure,
They love to annoy,
...
I find it odd,
You can't question God,
As he doesn't do face to face,
These deities we laud,
...
