Holiday Eve

‘Twas the night before Christmas
Nothing stirred,
No sound was heard
No human, nor animal, in sight
Even the mice had taken flight
The only ones about their business
Were the little green men from Mars
They had to be really careful
Their nature a little bit fearful
For the holidays not to turn into a farce
It was their turn to spread wholly
Presents and a great amounts of jolly!”

Holiday Fantasy vs. Reality

“I’m dreaming of a white Christmas…”

…Then we woke up
Put the dog out to pee
Decorated the holiday tree
In a soaking, stormy Christmas Eve

Little Red Elf

The little Red Elf
Standing on the shelf
Spreading all the mirth
To the people of this Earth

Holiday Reflections

5-b

Silent night, holy night
Time to give up the fight
Time to get quiet
Look at the pretty lights
And know that,
All will be alright

Elves

From yesteryear
A few welcome dears
For this season
Bringing us some cheer
To wash away the tears
And vanquish all fears
They are called
The Elves

Holiday Season

Present Overload

Did someone go overboard
With this massive overload
Of holiday presents
Under the holiday tree
Without a good reason
Nor any price of fee?

Well,
It’s certainly not unpleasant
So dig in
It’s not a sin
During this season!

Holiday Hearts

2-a

If you get the holiday blues
Don’t hang around alone and stew
Try to find the lost muse
Even in the decorative fuse
The shiny bright objects
May have a good affect
And sooner than later
You’re back exploring your prospects

Holiday Fable

“We have are all gathered on this table,
To play out a holiday fable
A tale which happened in a stable
A long, long, long time ago…”

Deck the Halls (traditional song)

Deck the halls with boughs of holly, Fa la la la la la la la!

‘Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la la la la!
Don we now our gay apparel, Fa la la la la la la la!
Troll the ancient Yuletide carol, Fa la la la la la la la!

See the blazing yule before us, Fa la la la la la la la!
Strike the harp and join the chorus, Fa la la la la la la la!

Follow me in merry measure, Fa la la la la la la la!
While I tell of Yuletide treasure, Fa la la la la la la la!

Fast away the old year passes, Fa la la la la la la la!
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses, Fa la la la la la la la!
Sing we joyous all together! Fa la la la la la la la!
Heedless of the wind and weather, Fa la la la la la la la!

Sunday before X-mas for Daily Photo (three)

“Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week”
Joseph Addison

Sunday before X-mas

In a comfortable winter’s sled
A holiday heart, glowing in red
Cheer and joy, for a while it will spread
No one knows, what here it lead
Or where it will next head
So each night, before you go to bed
Whisper a wish to keep it fed
