Christmas Repetition

By William Robertson

It’s Christmas time once again
A time rich with tradition
cakes, families, feasts and more
But it’s also a time for repetition
Much like the stripes of a candy cane
Decorating the tree is never a chore
Even with the same old Christmas songs
And ornaments from years before
My Christmas passion has never once gone
Nor have I ever found it a bore
This repetition isn’t to be scorned
But part and parcel of Christmas time
One that enriches the Christmas tradition
These two parts, once combined
Is perhaps why this time is so adored.
