What a palaver, what a mix
Of hopes and dreams and aspirations
To make it ‘the best’ , this festive celebration.
There is a mismatch between planning and achievement.
Just at the point of maximum activity
The plug is pulled, the batteries die
And you’re on the sofa , drained dry.
Lemon and honey at the ready
Paracetamol going steady –
Wondering again who’s idea it was
To take the kids to the Wizard Oz!?
