Christmas
I am happy we're alive today, even to witness Christmas.
That all of us are well dressed, and nobody on slippers.
That we are grown now, and none of us in diapers.
That most of us have put to bed and some of us now fathers.
That what we talk about now is all that matters.
That we either own big firms, or are strong leaders.
That we have become different from the others.
It is a good thing now to say,
That come what may,
We'd never decay,
That all that's ours will not delay,
That on every road, we'll have a way,
That for all we want, we can pay,
That our requests are granted as we pray.
Now we can't be late,
And it's because we have fate,
Which tells that we'll be great,
That we'll excel our mates,
That we'd win on every date,
That we'd never fall as baits,
But for every war we engage in,
The final outcome will a win.
As we approach the end of this year,
And prepare for the new one that is near,
We'd have nothing to fear,
We'd have every strength to tear
Everything we cannot bear.
Then we, and ours will say Cheers!!!
