Twas Two Months Before Christmas

I received this email  yesterday and thought it was very well done. And oh so true that it is scary.

MERRY CHRISTMAS                          

      

   

 

 
 
 Twas two  months

before ChristmasWhen all  through our land,
 Not a  Christian was praying
 Nor taking  a stand.
 Why the PC  Police

had taken away
The reason  for Christmas -

no one could  say.
 
 The  children were told

by their schools not to  sing
 About  Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and  things.
 It might  hurt people's feelings, the teachers would  say
 December  25th

is just a ' Holiday '.
 
 Yet the  shoppers were ready with cash, checks and  credit
 Pushing  folks down to the floor just to get  it!
 CDs from  Madonna, an X BOX, an I-Pod
 Something  was changing, something quite  odd!
 
 Retailers  promoted

Ramadan and Kwanzaa
 In hopes  to sell books by Franken &  Fonda.
 As Targets  were hanging their trees upside  down
At Lowe's  the word Christmas - was no where to be  found.
 At K-Mart  and Staples and Penny's and  Sears
You won't  hear

the word Christmas;

it won't touch your  ears.
 Inclusive, 

sensitive,

Di-ver-is-ty
 Are words  that were used

to intimidate me.
 Now  Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf  Blitzen
 On Boxer,  on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton  !
 At the top  of the Senate,

there arose such a  clatter
 To  eliminate Jesus,

in all public  matter.
 
 And we  spoke not a word,

as they took away our  faith
 Forbidden  to speak

of salvation and grace
 The true  Gift of Christmas

was exchanged and  discarded
The reason  for the season, stopped before it  started.
 
 So as you  celebrate

'Winter Break'

under your 'Dream  Tree'
 Sipping  your Starbucks,

listen to me.
 Choose  your words carefully, choose what you  say
 Shout  MERRY CHRISTMAS,
not Happy  Holiday!
 
 Please,  all Christians

join together and
wish  everyone you meet
 MERRY  CHRISTMAS!
 
 Christ is The Reason for the Christ-mas  Season!

Have a blessed Sunday,
Rose
