Christmas Rush. Poem by J.A McManus
Christmas Rush.
I used to hate the Christmas rush
With endless queues that flow out shop doors
Packed with people that push and shout
As they run around the crowded stores.
I used to hate the Christmas buzz
My money is gone before it’s earned
I’m really not keen on turkey
Especially when it’s bloody burned.
I used to hate the Christmas fuss
All I can hear is some festive tune
My house looks like the Vegas strip
So full of bright lights, they dim the moon.
But now I have kids, I try to
Make Christmas perfect in every way
Because their small, smiling faces
Makes my festive pain just melt away.

Great poem John. I could relate to your poem so well with the rush, spending too much money. Children create the magic at Christmas and when children leave home, like ours have, we can see the magic through our grandchildren's eyes. This is the second Christmas poem I have read tonight, so happy saving for Christmas! 10 love Karin
I enjoyed the concept and I used to feel the same.But children mellowed me.Now they grown up and flown the nest.I tend to get annoyed at the mass of adverts. We have a quiet xmas and dont need reminding we have gifts to buy in fact we have been since last xmas
A wonderful poem John, the Christmas rush is worse every year, and it's getting nearer by the day lol, well written 10 Lynda xx
