The Pub Today

The tables were full
Laughter filled the air
Christmas was asserting its pull
And some ladies have tinsel in their hair


A tree twinkles with light
Turkey and stuffing fill plates
Everyone felt the day was right
But occasionally sprouts do generate a little hate


A party all in Christmas attire
Pulling crackers and wearing silly hats
While my friend and I sit by the fire
And have a good chat.
