Twas the day after Christmas
and all through the day
we were all so very tired
no one wanted to play
We sat in our pj's
and super-comfy blankets
watched movies and napped
and ate lots of cheese-its
No meals to be planned
no tables to set
no decorating to be done
no more gifts to get
We bask in the glow
of the fun day before
of family and friends
and yummy food galore
We thought of those
who were not with us this year
and those far away
whom we still hold very dear
This day is not productive
nor is it meant to be
we are content to watch the lights
on yesterday’s Christmas tree
Life will crank back up
and tomorrow will come quick
so we sit on our butts
and another movie we will pick
And we exclaim to the kids
as we drift off to bed
Enjoy your christmas gifts
but don't let them go to your head
From our family to yours
there is one more thing to say
relax and enjoy you and yours
on this day after Christmas Day!
