A Christmas Blog
Twas, a week before Christmas and all through the factory,
Everyone was working to complete all the orders.
Go knitting, go batching, go dyeing and finishing,
Go cutting and sewing and printing and packing,
For its ship to the stores and onto the shelfs
The deadlines are coming the hours are long
But in two weeks we will all have some days off
For Christmas is coming and work will wind down
But we must meet deliveries and deadlines and costs.
The tensions are high, the departments run strong
The fabrics are moving the containers are full
The phones are all ringing the customers want more
But the deadlines are set and the spirits are high.
Because when it’s all over deadlines are met
Its home to the house with family and pets
Time to sit down and give thanks for all we have
A prayer for the poor and needy and homeless
Give thanks to the troops that are serving our country away
A toast to all friends and family that have passed away
Love to the neighbors and peace on this Earth
For Christmas is here and we need to remember the Birth.
Happy Holidays to All
