Christmas Carol

Lor was conducting a Christmas carol
While standing on a high stool in our hall
Swaying hands with her baton 
Faced front, bit sideways and soon
Stool swung for her slow exhibition-fall

Lol, It's only a fiction my dear friend, Anaya. This idea just popped up my mind, thinking myself or my aunt Lorie, my music teacher in high school, one of my favourite aunts (my dad's brod's wife) if this had happened to me or to her. Anyway, this was not picked in the contest so just a collection and written as souvenir for my aunt when she hadn't retired yet. Now, she's in US. Missing her so much.

It often happens to many who try to hang Christmas stars or decorations . Hope she didn't break her back in her wild enthusiasm in singing the carol....

A slow-motion fall my dear friend. Thank you so much for reading my poem and your kind words my dear. This poem was also written dedicated to my dear aunt who was my teacher in piano when I was young, music teacher when I was in high school and also the founder of our glee club (high school choir). She was a very good teacher. Now she's in US. Blessings. Hugs
