CHRISTMAS 1985

It's two weeks away and what have I done? 

How many gifts have I bought and wrapped?

It's practically here--just two weeks to go. 

Are all of my Christmas cards signed and sent? 

NO 

Is my Christmas tree with its branches of pine 

Aglitter with tinsel and ornaments? 

NEIN 

Fourteen more days---are my dinner plans set? 

The menu and recipes selected? 

NYET 

I want to go hear a Christmas cantata, 

But what have I done about going? 

NADA 

But my spirit is happy and gay nonetheless. 

MERRY CHRISTMAS to all YES ! YES ! YES !
