My Best Christmas 
 

My best Christmas,

My Uncle and Aunt,

Uncle Charlie and Aunt Marian,

Drew me,

And, I am forever drawn to them,

They gave me,

One Hundred games,

Three boards,

Checkers,

Chess,

Parcheesi,

Road Races,

Dices,

Little playing pieces,

Three boards,

Reversible,

Wow!

“Come play one game with me”,

Like a child,

Uncle Charlie did,

One game,

Two games,

Three games and more!

“How do you play checkers?”

“How do you play Chess?”

Uncle Charlie, said, “The Castle goes on the end,”

“The pawn moves forward one square,”

And, Mom and Dad say,

“It’s time for bed”,

To this day,

I love my Uncle Charlie,

At Christmastime!

And, for a Life time!
