T'was the night before Christmas and all through the land
People were tired of washing their hands.
The puppies were happy to have their peeps home
they always knew where they did roam.
Our masks were nestled from our noses to our chins
But looking at our eyes you could see a big grin.
The end was coming, I’m happy to say,
Things would be normal again soon one day.
Science has been busy during this very crazy year,
The smartest people have gotten their butts in gear,
They have created a Nobel worthy vaccine,
Once we all have it the world may be more serene.
As we hunkered down for a quiet celebration,
Which very much resembled a stay at home vacation,
We took the time to reflect on a year,
Which taught us all what we really hold dear.
Lady said she is grateful for all of the health,
It may be the bestest measure of true wealth.
She was built for a very reclusive life,
Leaving our dwelling causes her such strife.
The Man has gotten used to working in the house,
Which funny enough hasn’t had a problem mouse.
While he misses the people from his big office,
It is better to stay at home and be very cautious.
Phod has enjoyed his role as work supervisor,
He keeps a close eye on our early early riser.
Precious has helped him share the big load,
Guarding the people and monitoring the road.
Hailey has been the one to benefit the most.
She had the best year ever she would happily boast.
She has not needed much of her medication,
She has been more relaxed then Lady on vacation.
While our house has been abnormally blessed,
We appreciate for others 2020 has been messed.
As the year slowly comes to a long-awaited end,
To all of you struggling our love we do send.
In this topsy-turvy world there is something we keep,
Santa will have come when we wake up from our sleep.
May your stockings be full and your hearts feel light,
Have a Covid-free Christmas and to all a good night!
