BAH HUM BUG Bah hum bug I heard someone say as they passed me in the mall, Why must we spend money on someone who doesn't even call? Bah hum bug I heard someone say as they wandered through the store, Why do we have to shop spending more and more and more? Bah hum bug I heard someone say as a child fell down in my path. His mother snatched him up and rendered him her wrath. Bah hum bug I heard that child cry as he swept aside his tears Why must a parent stress upon a child's deepest fears. " Santa isn't coming to our house" she said as a matter of fact. I spoke up in his defense I 'm sorry you lack the tact. Santa loves all little boys and girls no matter what she says, you see A child is the reason that Christmas came to be. A bright twinkle found it's way to that little child's eye The woman even had a look as if she might begin to cry. She scooped him up in her arms and said her I'm so sorry son, Let's go back in the store and pick out that toy, a special one. |

A beautiful little Christmas tale, full of truth. If a dream touches us, it exists to us as anything else that touches us. John |
