A Different Merry Christmas Poem

*T'was the month before Christmas*
When all through our land,**
Not a Christian was praying*
*Nor taking a stand.* *
See the PC Police had taken away,* *
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 to sell books by Franken & Obama.*
*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 Pelsoi, Reid, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen* *
On Boxer, on Biden, on Kerry, on Clinton !*

*At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter*
*To eliminate Jesus, in all 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 and discarded*
*The reason for the season, 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 !*
