“Red is the ultimate cure for sadness” Bill Blass
Red
Red is my colour
Try not to follow
Red is my attitude
No intended platitude
Watch me bloom
As my nom de plume
Is Red

“O, how glorious would it be to set my heel upon the Pole and turn myself 360 degrees in a second!” Joseph Banks
A Visit to the North Pole
A quick trip
To the North Pole
A little hop and skip
To the beat of the drum roll
The elves busy at work
Their faces in a permanent smirk
No time for breaks or coffee
Not even a little toffee
The holiday season is upon us
Which has caused all the fuss
Be careful where you step though
You may end up in a pile of snow
Santa’s sleigh
Without delay
Flying over the river
Presents to deliver
Hitch a ride
In a blink of an eye
You’ll be landing
At the front door standing
Was it a dream
So it would seem
But then again
Life is but a dream

“December’s wintery breath is already clouding the pond, frosting the pane, obscuring summer’s memory…” John Geddes
December The First
December the first
Came with a burst
A sunrise most gorgeous
It’s almost flirtatious
Come what may
December made its way
Holiday season upon us
With sunshine in abundance

“Man, I really love Vegas” Elvis Presley
“Elvis has left the Konebuilding”
Jingle bells a-rocking
Elvis comes a-knocking
Gold lamé suit
Dancing to no ones’ flute
A real cool dude
Definitely no prude
Rocking around
The Christmas tree
To a cool sound
And and impish glee
Twist and shout
No time to pout
The jingle bells
Put their spells
Now the rest of us
Mere mortals of dust
Jamming with the king
And wholehearted sing
But oh how time flies
Now it is time to say
Our fondest good byes
Flying back to the skies
“Ladies and Gents,
Elvis, has left the (Kone)building”

“Believe in love. Believe in magic. Hell, believe in Santa Claus. Believe in others. Believe in yourself. Believe in your dreams. If you don’t, who will?” Jon Bon Jovi
A Visit to Father Christmas
The jolly Saint Nick
For some, Father Christmas
To others, Santa Claus
Call him what you will
You will always get your fill
Of happy thoughts and enjoyment
And possibly a nice payment
On Christmas Eve
If you only believe
