Ode to Christmas 2009

Tis the day before Christmas
And all through the Midwest
A storm dumps mounds of snow
Putting holiday travelers to the test.
***
Millions are out of work, through no fault of their own.
Yes, the economy still stinks, as statistics have shown.
When the market looks bullish, it turns out to be a bear.
But, fear not, Wise Women, there is good news to share!
***
A monumental event just took place in DC,
A wondrous sign of Christmas, for all to see.
In a city where hot air and inaction are the normal drill,
The Senate finally passed a health care bill!

P.S. Enjoy the final days of 2009 with family, friends and a good cup of coffee. We’ll be back on January 4, 2010.Christmas-star

    I loved the poem! I think the health care bill is an important step in the right direction, and I hope that it bears some fruit after the New Year.

    Merry Christmas! And see you in the New Year!
