It Isn't Fitten

When tree is up and lights are lit
And all the cards are written,
And fudge is made and duly packed
Will it be time for sittin'?

Well, can't you see the gifts to wrap
And pies in need of makin'?
The house to clean and beds to change
And rugs you could be shakin'?

And with the trips to town to buy
The things you've been forgettin'
And Christmas goodies to prepare,
There is no time for sittin'.

So, Dr. Phil will have to wait,
You have no time to listen.
There's songs to sing and bells to ring
And mistletoe and kissin'.

Just get from out that rockin' chair.
It truly isn't fittin'.
With all the Chistmas fun to have
There is no time for sittin'.

Joyce 12/05/05

Oh Joyce, how true this is...have 3 soldiers in Iraq expecting goodies, and of course the loved ones coming in to visit, and the little ones with their wish lists....guess that rockin' chair will just have to wait a little longer. This was delightful.
