By Gary Wood, Past President of MTMIC

T’was the month before Christmas and all through the place,
renewals were filling my desk, every space;

The adjusters were moving their claims to redemptions
with hopes that the state will approve, no exceptions;

Loss Control spent all their time early on
trying to make sense of MiOSHA’s next bomb;

Accounting was compiling their numbers with speed
to complete the filings required by need;

Sales efforts are running at full blast
in attempts to beat the numbers of the past;

When what to my wondering eyes appeared
but the end of the year and all that we feared;

The season is over and I can’t recall
that it even passed or what happened to fall!

(My apologies to Henry Livingston)
