Howard Kerr Poet Chastushka

Jingle bells my sleigh ride’s broke 
Gaudy gifts for “ice cool” folk 
Diamond pay card season blind
Misspent flurry on mankind!

Sara Kendrick June 8, 2026 at 5:24 AM Yes, we can do in a credit card at gift giving time and regret it much later and very much long. I have wised up and found that it is best to keep those cards in check. Thank you for sharing this one with us. Way to go with a win. Congratulations. Sara K.
