Not This Year Santa!

 

 

Watching the days and years go by so quickly

makes me think of when I was small.

It took forever for birthdays and Christmas to arrive,

fearing they wouldn’t come at all.

 

Now I no sooner put all the beautiful decorations away

and here it comes again.

Time to get them out, time for eggnog,

presents and Christmas cards to send.

 

I wouldn’t mind Christmas all that much

if it didn’t make my life go so fast.

In fact, I kind of like all the fuss and cheer,

for Christmas can be a blast.

 

But I am thinking this year,

of nailing Santa’s boots to the floor.

So he can’t get out on Christmas

& giving me one less birthday to score.

 

Written by,
Bonnie May

As we grow older, time flies at a much faster speed. It's true!!!
But I always love Christmas. It's the child in me that speaks to Santa every year!!!

What am I gonna do with you and Cryssa? You are considering nailing Santa's boots down (I can hardly believe it) and Cryssa suggests we all get pregnant (would take a few miracles)
Better get your pretty heads together and come up with some better suggestions! I heard someone tell how her family keeps their Christmas cards (received) in a basket all year, and pick one out every day and pray for the friends who sent it; I thought that was a neat, sweet idea, and it would make Christmas last longer, too.
Love,
Connie

I wouldn't mind Christmas, as long as they get past the commercialism aspect of it and remember the REAL Reason for the Season: the Birth of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ! I also wouldn't mind Christmas if people were nicer to each other and helped their fellow man OTHER than just CHILDREN!! There are PLENTY of ADULTS need help too!! Yet they seem to forget that!!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

Cute write, though; enjoyed~

Bonnie, maybe if you took your Christmas tree down before July it would help... hee, hee...
Just kidding!

The years seem to fly by quicker and quicker each year... I know why though... Time always moved more slowly when I was pregnant. So maybe we should all get pregnant and then time would slow down... hee, hee...
