"A PUPPY'S CHRISTMAS"
Author Unknown

***
It's the day before Christmas
And all through the house
The puppies are squeaking
An old rubber mouse.
***
The wreath which had merrily
Hung on the door
Is scattered in pieces
All over the floor.
***
The stockings that hung
In a neat little row
Now boast a hole in
Each one of the toes.
***
The tree was subjected
To bright-eyed whims,
And now, although splendid,
It's missing some limbs.
***
I catch them and hold them.
"Be good", I insist.
They lick me, then run off
To see what they've missed.
***
And now as I watch them
The thought comes to me,
That their's is the spirit
That Christmas should be.
***
Should children and puppies
Yet show us the way,
And teach us the joy
That should come with this day?
***
Could they bring the message
That's written above,
And tell us that, most of all
Christmas is love.
