Do you recall?

Do you recall that day in December,
A dark and dreary
A gray and gloomy
A Bleak and bleary
I think I was just laying down
On my bed, feeling like a clown
Just made, at the time
A huge mistake
And then dad came
To my room
And said, “come on,
Let’s go, and grab some food”
I got up in a second
Well, maybe two
And hopped in the car
Still tying my shoe
All of my family buckled
And seated
My sister and I, confused
My parents? Not so much
And then we arrived at the restaurant
I think it was, well maybe not
I really don’t know
Sorry, I might’ve forgot
I remember walking in
And suddenly the day
Got a little bit brighter
We sat down and my dad said
“I’ve got something to tell you”
My face set with worry, 
My dad, he laughed
He said,
I won a trip
I asked, “where to?”
To Disney world!
Not for one, or two.
But five whole days in 
The most magical place on earth
And then we ate
And then, we paid
Walked out to the car
And it started to rain
But did that matter?
No, not a bit
My day couldn’t possibly be
Any better
Did it matter if the rain made my 
Clothes get wetter?
The day I’d described as gray and dreary
I’d now describe as gay and cheery
So do you recall
That day, so dear
You don’t?
Well fine,
I guess, I’ll explain it here
