Just havin' fun prior to going into work. I do find it fun to make up new writes...I hope you find it a somewhat fun poem? ed & rufuz

Two Days to Christmas…


 


2 days to Christmas,


And all I got to look forward to,


Is going in to work,


My boss, the jerk, thinks it’s funny,


To make his minions work,


Like over-taxed, baby makin’ bunnies.


 


But really I don’t mind,


I don’t do much on Christmas anyway,


Well, maybe I do, just a bit, whine,


Cause I know I haven’t got anyone,


To actually spend the day with,


Except Rufuz, and he is, after all, a hon.


 


Rene will spend Christmas with her family,


They don’t seem to want to meet me,


As I don’t have enough money for them,


But they can’t take it with them,


So they can have their money, honey.


 


Rufuz and I will go to the beach,


To chase the seagulls & inhale the fresh salt air,


It may not seem to some to be quite fair,


But Rufuz and I enjoy each others company,


I mean we don’t get into each other’s hair,


We just enjoy the time we got, down there,


No matter if it is a holiday or not.


 


We will think of you when we are playing on the beach,


As without a cell phone or like that, we will be out of reach,


But the best thing, is the privacy & solitude, there,


Maybe I can get a few poems out of that trip, to share,


Keep watching for them & who knows,


Maybe there will be one that you find,


That makes your day,


As I will be happy to do so,


Oh and Merry Christmas & Happy New Year,


To all those out there in the Authors Den world,


You have all been, so far, so greatly, KIND!

I gotta work on Christmas too, but maybe it will go without a hitch, and maybe this will be the last Christmas in which I have to work! Anyway, there's a chance that I will win a new tv; all the employees who work that day are eligible! (Got a tv last year; not from working, but from our girlfriend! WHERE am I gonna' put it if I win it?? LOL And maybe I'll get TIPPED REAL BIG, too! LOL) So you aren't alone! Hang in there, and I will do the same! Good poem; and maybe I'll have Christmas off next year; this may be the last Christmas we may have to work! Oh, I hope so! (((HUGS))) and much love, your Tx. friend, Karen Lynn. :D Merry Christmas to you and yours; and try to have a positive outlook on it; I WAS bummed out, but then I got to thinking about the pluses, and it just may be a lot of fun! :D
