My Christmas (Poem) Rhyme
By Bob Nelson
T’was the night before Christmas and all through the lands
People were busy washing their hands
We all went about with masks on our faces
Finding businesses closed in so many places
We never imagined how bad it would get
As we chanted aloud “Is it May Yet?”
Cancelling the Run, no one could believe
Our bags were packed, we were ready to leave.
No Work, No School so we stayed close to home
In the garage with our bikes, just polishing chrome
Were allowed in public, but six feet apart
Not at a Church but ok at Wal-Mart
The vaccines are here, and the end is in sight
We will never surrender, we’re up for the fight
We’re Stronger Together We will get through this
But Santa, I ask you just one Christmas Wish
Take 2020 with you into the night as you go
And bury it deep into the cold Arctic snow
I heard him exclaim as he rode out of sight Merry Christmas to ALL
Now Let’s Run For The Wall
