Merry Christmas (Politically correct ... NOT)

Contributed by OhSaige on Saturday, 3rd December 2005 @ 09:58:51 AM in AEST
Topic: Holiday Poetry



Id wish you all a Merry Christmas
But then the trouble would begin.
For this a public posting
The ACLU, they would step in.

A demand to rewrite the greeting to:
Seasons Greeting or Happy Holidays.
For such a display of belief
Is not allowed these days.

A nativity scene in public
They scream and shout Be gone.
No Jesus, no angels or crosses
They want for barren lawns.

To all the non-believers
You can have your rants and rage.
Just leave me to my sunshine
Dont rain on my parade.

So I guess Ill take the chance
Put my neck out on the line.
And wish you all Merry Christmas
May your holidays be divine.

Political correctness can go too far as your poem points out. Well done and a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and yours. And may you have a safe and happy New Year also. Blessings, Jenny.
