Every Year at a Glance
After New Year's Eve, and New Year's Day
then you wait 'til your hangover goes away,
Martin Luther King Day, and his birthday observed,
Ash Wednesday, Lincoln's Birthday, then your Valentine's served !
We honor President's, Washington's, and St. Patrick's day,
after Good Friday, and Easter.....then March is away.
When we change the clocks, there's Mother's Day, too
then Memorial Day, you bring out the bar-be-que !
There's Flag Day, Father's Day, 4th of July,
and after Labor Day, September's gone by !
Rosh Hashana, Columbus, Yom Kipper, United Nation,
then, we have to change all our clocks, back again.
World Series, Halloween, then you "get out and vote",
then after Veteran's Day, there's a Thanksgiving Day float !
Next up? All holidays with a religious source;
Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Christmas, and Football...of course !
spilling into next year, Christmas has us in debt,
overtime helps, but can't pay that Super Bowl bet !
There's every single birthday, and anniversary you know,
add your better half's list, and watch your list really grow !
Now, from there...your holiday fun doesn't end,
now, you get to multiply every list by your friends !
there's just too many holidays for this year at a glance,
maybe, now you understand why I love my cats, and my plants !
