Don't know about a poem but I found this story. Christmas with the Right Family Directions: Everyong sits in a circle, holding the gift he/she brought for the gift exchange/grab bag. Someone reads the story below, reading slowly enough for gifts to be passed. Every time the word RIGHT is read, everybody passes his gift to the right. Everytime the word LEFT is read everybody passes the gift he/she is holding to the left. The gift each person is holding when the story ends is the gift he/she keeps. Christmas was almost here, and Mother RIGHT was finishing the Christmas baking. Father RIGHT, Sue RIGHT, and Billy RIGHT returned from their last-minute Christmas errands. 'There's not much LEFT to be done,' said Father RIGHT as he came into the kitchen. 'Did you leave the basket of food at church?' asked Mother RIGHT. ' I LEFT it RIGHT where you told me to,' said Father RIGHT. 'I'm glad my shopping is done,' said Billy RIGHT. 'I don't have any money LEFT.' The hall telephone rang, and Susan RIGHT LEFT to answer it. She rushed back and told the family 'Aunt Tillie RIGHT LEFT a package for us RIGHT on Grandma RIGHT's porch. I'll go over there RIGHT now and get it.' she said as she LEFT in a rush. Father RIGHT LEFT the kitchen and brought in the Christmas tree. By the time Susan RIGHT returned, Mother RIGHT, Father RIGHT, and Billy RIGHT had begun trimming the tree. The entire RIGHT family sang carols as they finished the decorating. Then they LEFT all the presents arranged under the tree and went to bed, hoping they had selected the RIGHT gifts for their family. Now I hope you have the RIGHT present for yourself, because that's all that's LEFT of our story.....except to with you a Merry Christmas....Isn't that RIGHT?

I'll post a pic as soon as I get more done .. I just started making them on Friday got about 20 or so done.. My grandson is in the hospital at the moment so I crochet when he is a sleep .. I gotta make about 150 of them by Christmas ..

I think this is the original poem but I don't know who the author is. At a time when we should feel most blessed The holidays can make us feel quite stressed. When you feel the crabbies coming near, Sprinkle your self with Christmas cheer! I make these too but call them Cheer Shakers and changed the poem to suit me.
