“This is boring? What do you mean?
It’s for our kids,
let them dream” Husband says
“But it’s a ruse,” Wife shakes her head
“A bunny rabbit hiding eggs of candy
A fat man sliding down a chimney
A fairy stealing teeth while kids sleep
Independence Day?
Pure fantasy. I’ve had enough
of these traditions already”
“Okay then, simply pretend
Think of it as a temporary tale
instead of some unending
holiday hell”
“I’ll try. Likely fail
I’m not really into holidays
as you can tell”
“Just take a red sip
A little more wine, less whine, babe
Let’s have fun
Watch the fireworks shine”
“Okay,” Wife smiles
“At least we’re all here together,
for a time”
