The Holidays Poem by Dianna Nally

It's October and Halloween is near
Little kids all done up for Trick or Treat.
Going neighborhood to neighborhood, door to door
Hoping they get the most goodies to eat.

November is my favorite month
I make turkey, potatoes and gravy from scratch
And I won't have to cook for awhile
Because I always make a big batch.

The family will come over to our place for dinner
It's a tradition we have in our home.
And sometimes a friend is invited to join us
Because no one should spend the holidays alone.

We all sit at the table, the blessing is said
And we give thanks to our blessed Lord
We fill our plates, our tummy's get full
Everyones content, Who could ask for anything more.

Now it's December. That's a hard month
People no longer with us will truly be missed.
But we will get through it, I'll see to that
Because this holiday is for the kids.
