A poem about leaving grudges behind for the holidays.
She hates what he does to her.
He hates hearing about her grays.
But today they leave that all behind.
Why? Because it's the holidays.

Mother cooks for hours.
Father hates the taste.
But today it's fine cuisine.
Why? Because it's the holidays.

Brother is such a mean, mean boy.
Sister is annoying in all her little ways.
But today they are best friends.
Why? Because it's the holidays.

I'm sick of your attitude.
You're sick of the things I say.
But today we're just simply in love.
Why? Because it's the holidays.
