Eyes opened.  Behold,
the dawning of a new day!
Satisfied, my Lord.

Christmas: What is it not About

It’s not about

Santa, his reindeer

Or sleigh.

It’s not about

The gifts you’ll get

That day.

It’s not about

All the food, cakes

Or pies.

It’s not about

The sales they

Advertise.

No, it’s not about

Any of those things

That make us gay.

It’s about

Jesus Christ

Who was born CHRISTmas Day.

The One

Sent by God

In the most humble way.

Remember and Rejoice

Over what it’s about.

Don’t stress

Over what it is not.

Waiting Room Blues

Do you have the waiting room blues?
Hope you put on comfortable shoes
Since you'll probably end up in a bad mood.

Is your child NPO, hungry, grouchy and ready to go?
What do you do but just sit there,
Twisting and turning in your chair.

How long has it been?
1, 2, 4, 6 hours today.
By now your wishing, "Calgon, take me away".

Yes, you've been diagnosed,
With the waiting room blues.
Your sanity you could lose.

But, don't let the waiting room blues
Get you all bent out of shape
You'll see at the end of the day
The benefit outweighs the wait.
