Mo Christmas

Mo; and everything was go,

All you; had to do was go with the flow,

Just days; until it went upside down,

Right now; got to get rid of this frown.

 

Christmas time; and it was all fine,

At the table; with Turkey dinner and wine,

Hours after; we had had the presents time,

Early morning; drinking Brandy which was fine.

 

The whole; family would be there,

My brother; we'd be drinking beer,

Having a laugh; just like every year,

But now, it seems so far from here.

 

Post Mo; and it all seemed to go,

No decorations; for Christmas would be shown,

The traditions; had even seemed to go,

This year; even Terry's Chocolate Orange was a no show.

 

Now all; gone in our own separate ways,

The Red Lion; just sat there in a daze,

Thinking of K; with his new family Christmas Day,

And my Dad; hopefully this year was just a phase.

 

Christmas time; now seems to have gone downhill,

Go on then; go get me that magic pill,

And then; I may let you call me Phil,

Next Christmas; you know it will be uphill.

 

Decorations around; for Mo to be proud,

A Terry's; you know would be sound,

And the family; with a table we'd all be around,

Altogether, if it could happen we'd be bound.
