It’s amazing – so many people have relocated over the years, but there don’t seem to be any odes written about the process! That’s why we decided to take a little time away from moving box customer service and delivery and pen our own poem that’s inspired by “’Twas the Night Before Christmas.” While it’s probably not going to be a smash hit, we’re pretty happy with the results!
‘Twas the night before moving
To a Mississauga house.
All the family was giddy
Down to their pet mouse.
A moving box sat
In the corner of each room,
Some were stacked high
Like protectors that loom.
The family lay in their beds
On that long, sleepless night…
And dreamed of their futures
While bathed in moonlight.
Dad pictured the way
He would transform the shed
Outside of their new home –
Thoughts swam in his head!
Mom tried not to laugh
As she pictured with ease
The lovely bay window
That looked out on the trees.
The boy couldn’t rest –
He would now be alone!
How long had he wanted
A room of his own?
The girl thought of colors
She wanted for walls.
Should she paint all straight lines?
Or try circles and balls?
The faithful dog joined
In the thinking as well…
He wanted to test out
The neighborhood’s smell!
Yes, this was their evening
Before their farewells
To their old home, now too small
Since their family had swelled!
They were ready for changes…
There was thrill in the air…
They were starting anew,
Moving their lair.
To all of the people
Who feel like they do
May all of your moves
Be exciting for you.
