Victor Buhagiar Poet Couplet

Christmas Kisses 2020

Alas Christmas Day is fast approaching,
With fluffy white snow and chill encroaching,
And all we could do is dream of kissing,
With pandemic, all the bliss I'm missing.

Should we go and buy some green mistletoe?
It would be void, we'll miss all afterglow.
So with thick masks to protect our faces
We can only pray and hope for graces.


Just passing 
the time away.

Alexis Y. December 7, 2020 at 12:02 AM Hi Victor, Christmas will most definitely be different this year. At best we can stroll down memory lane and remember kissing under the mistletoe. Nevertheless, we must remain hopeful that things will back to normal again. I enjoyed the read:-) Alexis

David Smith December 6, 2020 at 10:28 PM All we can do is hang on in there. I am sure poets will help us get though. Glad you are still up to the task and doing your bit. Best regards and Merry Christmas. David in NZ

Tania Kitchin December 5, 2020 at 3:35 AM Christmas celebrations are definitely different this year, I enjoyed your poem and I say still buy that mistletoe!

Silent One December 5, 2020 at 3:21 AM I think you should buy some and get lots of kisses my friend... I think many will be less affectionate this year.. sadly..

Caren Krutsinger December 4, 2020 at 11:35 PM This made me smile because of the truth of the "absence of mistletoe this year" but it also made me incredibly sad, because of the non-hugs and non-lots-of-other-things this year. I too pray we can get through this.
