The Holes are Still There

The CHRISTMAS Season Is here and are you wondering if you have been naughty or nice? This could help! My Uncle wrote this in 1978 and I think it is a good read and a great lesson in life. If you like it, pass it on.


“Please, dad, what can I do
To stop being bad and benefit you?”
“Hang up a board, my little lad,
Drive in a nail whenever you’re bad.
In time, you’ll see the wrongs you do
And start behaving if your effort’s true.”
The boy did this and as time went by,
A bright little twinkle came to his eye,
The nails had stopped going into the board.
He bowed his head and thanked the Lord,
Then rushed to his dad, who followed him back,
To see the good news, no good did he lack.
“Now what can I do to right all the bad?”
The little boy asked, as he turned to his dad.
“Remove one nail for each good deed,
Like helping others when they’re in need.”
Again the boy did just as told
And before long was on the right road.
When from the board the nails disappeared,
He called to his dad who beside him appeared.
“See, dad, the nails are all gone,”
The little boy said, his heart was a song.
“Yes, my son, the board is bare,
“But always remember. . .
The Holes Are Still There! “
