Anatomy of a Hallmark
For those who love the Hallmark reels
with stories that give all the feels
You’ll notice that in every one
there is the same web to be spun
The small town girl who comes back home
her city slicker job to roam
Has led her back to find romance
to give someone a second chance
And then, that interrupted kiss
that makes us wait for wedded bliss
Precedes that stumble and near fall
fair maiden saved by one so tall
Of course, there shines our Christmas glee
to warm the hearts of all who see
The Holidays will save the day
when lovers seem to lose their way
The cookie sales and Santa’s wink
That magic that still tickles pink
And knowing that it all will mend
about five minutes till the end!
So safe, so sweet, that Hallmark thrill
When such a show is on the bill
So make ye fun, if that must be
But there’s no bigger fan than me
