* End It...Begin It *

Oh! How glad I am
To be free once more
To live at a normal pace
No hurrying to the store

Though nice are the days
We celebrate each year
They seem too busy for me
It's over, is music to my ears

We pack up all the trimmings
Store them carefully away
Enjoy this entire year
Savor every day

For when we've come once more
To the end of this new year
It'll happen all over again
Christmas once more will be here
