X-mas x3 I one

“It’s that time of the season…again!” Gun Roswell

X-mas x3

Elves

Dressed in grey and red, some trying green instead
A neatly stacked row of elves, there, sitting, on the shelf
They’ll come alive, when the clock strikes five
No matter if it’s night or day, the Elves will come out to play

If you happen to catch them in the act, then as a matter of fact
An Elf you’ll become too, at least, for an hour or two
Some say it’s just the holiday spirit kicking in
But you’ll know better, once you into their shoes are stepping in

They might be a tight fit
But squeeze your toes in, they’ll sit!

Winter Blues two

“Oh Winter, you came again!” Gun Roswell

Winter Blues

Forest silent for a moment, when the snow had descended
Winter season had begun, announcing all the activities as fun
Skiing, skating, sleighing, there is really no denying
Winter can be a lot of fun, even if there is hardly any sun

For a moment the world seems a little smaller
As the trees grow taller, and the forest seems a lot cooler
But dressing up in warm clothing, watching life of white unfolding
Keeping up the lights, in the long nights, future seems also bright

“Oh Winter, you came again!” Gun Roswell

Winter Blues

Blue descended, on the small lake, undefended
As the sun was setting for the final time of the season
Leaving only the one artificial light, to act as a solemn beacon
In the total darkness, leaving everything otherwise defenseless

Unless, staying inside the guarded perimeter
Patrolled by the vigilant elves, going through each centimeter
Humans and animals a like, huddled together, for the next short while
Until such time, the Spring will arrive, and bring forth the sun’s shine

Winter Sun

“A rare moment surely, at this season” Gun Roswell

Winter Sun

Hanging low,
Emanating a soft glow
The neutron star,
Which gives us light even this far
Nature’s special effect,
When you did not expect
The Winter’s sun,
Before the day is done

But not for too long,
Not even time for a song,
It was once again gone
Setting into the horizon,
Not tomorrow arising,
Not even once smiling
It will be set,
Until the final bet
Of a long Winter’s day
And only then,
It’s warmth will it spread
Here and there
And all will be fair
Once more,
Yes we did score!

November mornings I three

November mornings x3

New friends

A friend made out of wood
In the middle of the floor stood
Dressed only in a red cap
I could not help but stare at that

It did not say much to me
As I stated hello, you see
It is made of material other
Than myself were

But that was just fine
Sometimes silence is divine
And then, sharing a cup of coffee
With a small biscotti

November mornings I two

November mornings x3

Moonlight sky

The pale sky in the morning
At the time of everyone yawning
The moon popped up for a try
Taking it’s chances against the sun
Maybe, today, it could shine

All day long against the blue skies
Only fluffy clouds to dive behind
No sun could be heard or seen
But alas, the light was still bright

The moon did it’s job well today
And now it can until the ever stay
Even past the night
It can shine ever so bright

November mornings x3

Misty morning

Before the sun is rising
Before anyone else is walking
Before people are even talking
Before I could start hawking

The suburbia is still sleeping
The misty moist is seeping
In to the slowness of the morning
And today, there may be no dawning

Like any other day in November
Be prepared for all kinds of weather
Maybe the sun will shine later on
But before that, you gotta be strong

“Follow your passions, believe in karma, and you won’t have to chase your dreams; they will come to you.”

Bread and Circuses aka Happy New Year!

Bread and Circuses
For any and all purposes
Lights and fireworks
Maybe with some quirks

No time to waste
It is time to celebrate
Let us all unite
Leave our differences, aside

The New Year
We hail
Following
A different trail
Past and present
Already spent
To the future
From now on
We all ascend

Elves

Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder.
Elves are marvellous. They cause marvels.
Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies.
Elves are glamorous. They project glamour.
Elves are enchanting. They weave enchantment.
Elves are terrific. They beget terror.
The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.
No one ever said elves are nice.
Elves are bad.”
― Terry Pratchett, Lords and Ladies

Elves

“Tip tap tip tap tipe tipe tip tap”

The stars in the sky shining bright
No one knows where they tread

Dressed in white
Dressed in red

The Holiday Season is upon us
The Elves are all around us

Small or tall
They’re having a ball
Singing along
The holiday’s song

“Tip tap tip tap tipe tipe tip tap”
