Christmas Catalogs – a Poem [1]
['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']
Date: 2023-12-22
It's that jolly, jolly time of year
When colorful Christmas Catalogs appear
Inside our postal mailbox.
Hickory Farms, L.L. Bean
Harry & David, Pittman & Davis,
Sharper Image, Crate and Barrel,
Fingerhut, Sees, Swiss Colony,
Noble Collection, Omaha Steaks, Lands' End...
The list of them seems as long times twice
As Santa's record of Naughties and Nice.
So hours are spent perusing
Selecting what we'd get,
Though know we're just pretending
Trying our darndest to forget,
That all these gifts and goods galore so grand
Are stocked and sent from shops unreachable
In fabled Never Never Land.
