Oh didn't the year fly by...

Children its safe - Santa won't catch alight
Look the yule logs they're now burning twice as bight
As is this spirit refreshed with ice
Or is it granddads dancing - beyond price.

"Ding Dong Merrily on High" oh didn't the year fly by
So many tears and squabbles I just don't know why.
Look, look out the window, Wow, the snow is falling.
Children can you see the carol singers—hawking!

Filling their pockets "now stockings are empty"...
"Ho ho ho" where did the old sleigh go... Dostoevsky
So many things go missing or gets broken!
Toys! Sometimes, play is verboten.

Every year as the Christmas season draws near, this feeling n realization that the year just flew becomes so overpowering...

Good work..
