CHRISTMAS LAMENT
by Bill Kochman
08-28-2014
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Each one a lost and stubborn soul,
Satan cackles with great delight,
As he grabs a new one from his bowl.
There will be no “Merry Christmas!”,
For these foolish people I do fear,
They refused to acknowledge Jesus,
Promoted their traditions each year.
Santa Claus was so important to them,
While Christ was left out in the snow,
To God they offered so many excuses,
But they can’t say they did not know.
