Hello there, my loyal core of few but faithful followers. As you recall, I previously presented to you my ill fated Christmas card poem. Well, I now offer to you the actual verse that made it into this year’s card. It’s been updated a bit… so, if you received my holiday offering in the mail, it still might be worth a re-read. Stash
2012
Christmas time has finally arrived
And thankfully we’ve all survived.
Hurricane Sandy, gasoline lines…
Election shenanigans… monkeyshines.
Ladies reading Shades of Gray,
Obamacare… it’s here to stay.
Lance Armstrong exposed a cheater,
Nancy Pelosi… still Minority Leader.
Military scandals, Donald Trump…
Yankee fiasco… October slump.
Tainted food, deadly drugs…
Elmo and hotel bedbugs.
Fiscal cliff, stock market woe…
Climate change… free birth control.
Immigration, drugs, urban crime…
World unrest, senseless wartime.
Automatic weapons, assault rifles…
Unthinkable events, god awful… frightful.
Like a passage lifted from Dante’s book…
The Connecticut atrocity at Sandy Hook.
Yes, it’s been one heck of a year…
It’s time for a bit of holiday cheer.
So little upon which we can depend…
Nice to know that you’re our friend.
Happy Holidays,
Stash
