Completely happy Merry!

‘Tis two days earlier than Christmas
and at every brokerage home

The one factor stirring
was the press of a mouse

Down on the Alternate
the tape inches alongside

Brokers bargained and traded
as they hummed an previous tune

With provide chain disruptions
from iPhones by means of socks

And new bugs got here to bug us
like that factor, Monkey Pox

The Astros took the Collection
and the Rams took the Bowl

Argentines gained the World Cup with a coronary heart stopping aim

We had a midterm election
however it introduced no pink tide

Voters even elected
one man who had died

Of Prince Harry and Meghan
her criticism by no means ends

Oh, certain they’re earning profits
however they don’t seem to be making mates

A younger man informed reporters
I used to be simply sloppy, I concern

A slightly glib clarification
when billions disappear

And Hurricane Ian
turned paradise into hell

Rising crime and inflation
they had been options as nicely

This yr was simply terrible with little to cheer

Nevertheless it’s Christmastime Alice and Santa is close to

So, cease trying backwards
have a cup of excellent cheer

And kiss you a cherished one
increase your hopes for subsequent yr

And amidst all of the buying and selling
Christmas themes we’ll heed

And share our success with households in want

And at present they may pause
as they wait on the bell

And switch to one another
and need each nicely

Don’t let this yr’s issues impede Christmas Cheer

Resolve to be pleased
all through the New 12 months

And resist ye Grinch emotions let pleasure by no means cease Put the unhealthy on the backside

hold the nice on the highest

So, depend up your blessings alongside along with your value

You’re nonetheless dwelling right here
in the most effective place on earth

And assume ye of wonders
that gentle kids’s eyes

And hope Santa will deliver you that Christmas shock

So, play ye a carol
by Mario Lanza

Until you might be ready
to have fun Kwanzaa

Hanukkah’s is now ending
and Ramadan is lengthy gone

Completely different of us, completely different holidays however their spirit lives on

No matter your feast is
we hope you all nonetheless

End up simply surrounded by of us of goodwill

At present, because the bell rings
hark to your coronary heart’s name

And as Santa would shout Merry Christmas to All!
