*Twas the month before Christmas*Please, all Christians join together and wish everyone you meet during the holidays a MERRY CHRISTMAS
*When all through our land,*
*Not a Christian was praying*
*Nor taking a stand.*
*'Cause the PC Police had taken away*
*And the reason for Christmas - no one could say.*
*The children were told by their schools not to sing,*
*About Shepherds, and Wise Men, and Angels and things.*
*It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say,*
* December 25th is just a 'Holiday '.*
*Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit*
*Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!*
*CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-pod*
*Something was changing, something quite odd! *
*Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa*
*In hopes of selling books by Franken or Fonda.*
*As Targets were hanging their trees upside down*
* At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.*
*At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears*
*You won't hear the word Christmas;
it won't touch your ears.*
*Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty*
*Are words that were used to intimidate me.*
*Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen*
*On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton !*
*At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter*
*To eliminate Jesus, in every public matter.*
*And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith*
* Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace*
*The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged or discarded*
*The reason for the season, was stopped before it started.*
*So as you celebrate 'Winter Break' under your 'Dream Tree'*
*Sipping your Starbucks, Listen to me.*
*Choose your words carefully, choose what you say*
*Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS ,
not Happy Holiday !*
Christ is �The Reason� for the Christ-mas Season!

Merry Christmas MMC! Monkeyman's school is officially holding a "Christmas Concert" this year, not a "Winter Concert" - so I guess all us parents complaining over the last few years has finally sunk in.
love ya! (still thinking alot about your comments, too.)

Hey Tam. I'm pleasantly surprised, perhaps there is hope after all. As for you, hang in there, my friend.
What a great poem. Although with Peyton's speech issues we have been working on the Merry Christmas and the Happy Holidays but he can't say either but he does say Happy Christmas. He gets it and that's what is important. I hope you enjoy the holidays.
