In my long life
I have seen many things
But yesterday I saw something,
Something I could not believe.
We went up to the garden centre
To go to our coffee shop
And enjoy coffee with friends.
We got out the car
And there they were,
A family dressed in Christmas clothes!
I spoke to them,
Apparently Father Christmas was there
And they were taking the children
To see the red coated bearded man.
It seemed that the Garden Centre was celebrating,
Celebrating Christmas in July.
One of the shops had Christmas decorations,
Decorations all over it’s entrance,
Kids and parents were flocking in,
Flocking in to celebrate,
Celebrate Christmas in July.
The only thing I could think of
Was why the hell is this happening,
Its bad enough to have it once a year,
We do not need it twice!!
