Coming to a town near you

Christmas is coming, what treats there are in store
Ten hour family visits, not just the usual four
If you haven’t got the money, a credit card will do
If you haven’t got a credit card, God bless you

Christmas is coming, how lavishly we’ll dine
Turkey, sausage, trifle, and special offer wine
If you haven’t got the know-how, a supermart will do
If you haven’t got a supermart, God bless you

Christmas is coming, it’s present time again
What to give our loved ones, especially the men
If you haven’t got an inkling, a catalogue will do
If you haven’t got a catalogue, God bless you.

Christmas is coming, shops are all a glitter
Frantic hunts for gifts can make us that much fitter
If you haven’t got the time though, the internet will do
If you haven’t got the internet, God bless you

Christmas is coming, the office party’s near
A glass or two of wine will make the bosses more sincere
If you haven’t got an office, a club or pub will do
If you haven’t got a club or pub, God bless you

Christmas is going, we’re stuffed and want no more
All those unloved presents stacked up behind the door
If you don’t know where to put them, a charity will do
If you haven’t got a charity, God bless you

Comments:
Geez, now I'm really looking forward to it!

Great poem.
 
Did you write that yourself?
God Bless You!

;)
 
Great - rhyme, scan, imagery - everthing.
 
Thanks guys - just some new words to the old favourite 'Christmas is coming, the geese are getting fat...'
