Reason For The Season

Reason for the Season

 

What child is this that begs for more

when beneath the tree he sees the floor?

When all the presents are unwrapped

and the carolers have sung their last?

 

Do we blame the marketing

when it starts before Halloween?

Or do we blame the parenting

that bows before the industry?

 

Remember not the real reason

that we celebrate this sacred season

Forget the love, forget the peace

forget the gifts we really need

 

The only giving we should do

is of the dollar from me to you

and judge each other by our net worth

Forgetting to buy peace on earth

 

 

 

Just some modern Christmas spirit.
