The title explains it all!
Christmas Day Dinner

Mama’s roasting turkey,
Grandma’s baking pie;
Papa’s in the doghouse
(I can’t tell you why)!


Zachy found the cookies,
Lauren sips her pop;
Caleb holds his bottle,
Drinking milk nonstop!


Devon munches pickles,
Grandpa spies the peas;
Jerry snacks on olives,
I devour the cheese!


Potatoes are still cooking,
Corn is almost done;
Coffee’s in the thermos,
Dinner is at one!


Salad’s on the counter,
Homemade bread awaits;
Silverware on napkins,
Next to Christmas plates!


We now sit at the table—
Bow our heads to pray,
Thanking God for family
On this Christmas Day!
