Families At Christmas


As I lay asleep in bed,




Dreams of Christmas,




Fill my head;




Who I'll see,




What gift to buy,




I love this day,




and I know why;




Together it brings us,




From near and far,




Our travels so distant,




Requires a car;




With packages and food,




The car is packed tight,




Start up the engine,




We're off on our flight;




Excited to see,




Faces seen once a year,




Tho, distance separates us,




We're family, that's clear;




Family's the best part,




gifts take second place,




The hugs and the kisses,




To each other, We race;




It is sad when it's over,




Back to our lives,




Till next year,




When it once more arrives.
