All I Want for Christmas….zzzzzzzzzzzz

All I want for Christmas

All I want for Christmas

Is to keep what I’ve already got

Believe me that is something

For I really have a lot.

 

The man I wake up next to

Would be good to keep around

Not just because he loves but

Because our hearts are bound.

 

Healthy kids and grandkids

Their loving hugs and kisses

I must have these – I would insist

Even if it wasn’t Christmas.

 

My sisters I must keep as well

For they’ve seen me through a lot.

Neices, nephews, cousins, too.

All the relatives that I’ve got.

 

I’d like to keep my job, of course

And my home, I want to keep.

My precious dog, all my plants

And my eleven year old Jeep.

 

The remainder of my eyesight and

Brain cells I haven’t killed

If I could keep both of those

I truly would be thrilled.

 

Cash enough to pay the bills and

Put food upon the table

The lights, the gas, the internet

And Oh, we must keep cable!

 

My friends – both old and new

I’d want to keep them still.

To share a laugh, a tear or two (or twenty).

They’re friends – they know the drill.

 

My sense of humor – such as it is

I could not do without

For surely I would rant and rave

Of that there is not doubt.

 

I don’t need things – I have too much

So let me make this clear

Santa there really is no need

For you to stop by here.

 

But if you do, all I would ask

In addition to the things I’d keep.

Please keep it down – as best you can

I’d like a good night’s sleep!
