Let the sales wait
stay at home with family
talk to friends over a drink
perhaps share a meal
leave the shops empty
the same deals will be there
tomorrow and the next day
but today, let them wait
so they close their doors
allow staff to be at home
with their family and friends
eating, drinking, laughing
create a new demand
on boxing day
let the sales wait
Many do not get off for the holidays to be with family. Family time is much needed and this poem is too! It can all wait! Nicely done!
Extending time with family and friends is never a bad thing. Great poem Matthew.
