Dem does spend Christmas and Boxing Day quiet but dem does go pun a spending whirlwind in preparation fuh dem same days. And after Christmas dem does be wondering what was all the fuss about.

Deh gat poor people wah does claim dem struggling fuh put food pun dem table, yet every year dem gat to get new blinds fuh dem house, spread vinolay fuh cover de poor flooring, and does want buy nuff appliances just fuh impress dem poor friends.

Dem fuhget dat de man whose birth dem celebrating rode into Bethlehem on a donkey and not a Dodge Ram. And he was born in a manger and not a mansion. He nah had blinds. If he were around today, he might ask how come people celebrating he birthday and nat inviting he into dem home and hearts!
