Jingle My Bells

by Amanda Geering

The time has come to deck the halls

Mom drags out her Christmas balls

Dad is clueless when it comes to decor

His contribution resembles a jolly war

With a long sigh mom changes the scene

Dads none the wiser with her intervene

Decor redone and mom at ease

Dad sets his eye to the Christmas trees'

With a whip and a flash his decor is complete

Mom stares at him with feelings of defeat

Moms balls are shuffled and looking a mess

She's patient at first as not to cause stress

As dad leaves to decor some more

Moms balls are moved into better restore

With a watchful eye and a smile so sweet

Mom suggests dad does something neat

Off to the store your helpful self goes

A "honey do" list as long as your arm

She waves him farewell with her lovely charm

Time to redo everything dad has completed

She rushes as his bum is not long seated

He will be back soon to help some more

Moms balls, wreaths, lights, and decor

Finally look perfect as she finishes quick

She watches as he comes through the door

He doesn't blink twice at her organized decor

Clueless he stares day after day

Jingle my bells we sure did a great job

I sure helped pick up some slack

Dad says and she smiles behind his back

Every year my husband âhelpsâ me decorate and I redo it because I like things to be just right. I will let him think heâs doing a great job just like the kids but he doesnât ever notice when I change his completed pieces. I will always love decorating with him and hope the memory stays forever as we get old together.
