The TALES you probably never heard about

DECEMBER

It’s the last month yes December is here
And in a few days we will celebrate a new year
This month will go by like all the rest
Yes all the ones before that were the best
Snowmobiles will be out this winter once again
May no accidents happen and no one suffer pain
The wild geese are gone and will be back in May
And boats and summer things are now put away
Those who got a deer may they enjoy the meat
I hope they give thanks as they sit down to eat
A team was harnessed and hooked up to the sleigh
So folks got on for a ride on the winters day
All the trees were bare with snow all around
While the house was cozy as the moon shone down
Ride program is in effect to catch impaired drivers
I say change it to side and we’ll have more survivors
Christmas is coming and children are full of joy
Hoping they will get some more new toys
There were many presents there under the tree
But if times get hard not one there will be
Children will skate and play in the snow
As we done the same back many years ago
There isn’t much sun in December it will be back soon
Yes there will be more of it before we hit June
Others will ice fish if there is enough on the lake
And as they go home may the limit is all they take
Since its cooler out we’ll all spend more time indoors
So isn’t it a good time to do those put off chores
Christmas is the time we have a big celebration
But isn’t it Christ’s birthday were to celebrate in our nation
