December Celebrations

It’s the last month of the year
What does it mean to you;
Not enough hours in the day
For the things you have to do.

Cakes to bake plum pudding to make
Christmas cards and presents to buy;
Stretching beyond financial means
No matter how hard you may try.

After a massive long tiring trip
You struggle on home exhausted;
Now all the things you bought await
To be written, wrapped and posted.

No time left for newsy letters
Festive greetings will have to do;
Will another full year pass by
E’er they hear again from you?
