christmas time

CHRISTMAS TIME

 Time, a massive inanimate and animate object that is both visible and invisible. Like st. Augustine put it succinctly “what is time”? if nobody ask me,I know, but if I want to explain it to someone, then I do not know.

 

Father: here we go again june, is another Christmas

June: yes and don’t you thank God for that

Father: I sure did, why do you have to sound so dull

June: I don’t know, maybe because you still owe a little chap like me some money

Father: I’ll give you your money,just do what you know how to do best

June: oh I’ll do what I do well

Father: don’t know why you have to dress like that

June: what’s wrong with this dress?

Father: doesn’t suit the season, dressing like going for a disco party

June: I figure if I want to beg I’ll have to do it with some style

Father: keep in mind you are the beggar not the giver

June: that’s true but in the end we are the giver

Father: givers never lack baby girl, whatever you set your mind to do have to be free before thinking of the reward, otherwise is not worth trying

June: have you not heard of the phrase “get rich or die trying”

Father: that’s for hustlers, we are beggars, so beg right and you shall be rewarded

June: let me beg right with this lad, hi sir can you spare some change

Opp: sorry I’m broke to the bone

June: you can’t be broke is almost the end of the year, and I’m sure you’ve been working

Opp: guess what I’m a professional beggar

June: hey Father! This one is one of us

Father: oh mehn another street professional

June: hmm professional beggar, thank God we are charity beggar

Father: okay june don’t let those past months we spent at home be a waste make those idle months work, make it work baby girl

[june remembers the dream she had about Christmas during her idle months]

“by their name you shall get them” those words I still don’t get it

[if peradventure is not their real name, then is their time]

June: huh who said that?

Father: who say what, common june you’ve just missed one of them white collar guy

June: sorry father, maybe you need to beat the drum hard enough to get people attention

Father: I’ll beat the drum for you, here comes another lad this one is neat

June: hello there sir, you’ve got any change to spare

Brand: why do I have to you any change

June: oh is not for me but for charity

Brand: yeah always for charity, make sure you give it to the needy people matter of fact take all my change

June: holy God thank you sir, God bless

[but you can break their time]

Father: are you okay baby

June: yes I’m cool, that lad gave me a lot of money

Father: alright then pack your bag and stuff lets go and rest in peace
