Deck the Halls

The Christmas Spirit is in the air.
Santa’s workshop is very busy tonight.
Elves will handle the gifts with care.

To bring cheer to children everywhere,
Getting each toy delivered is Santa’s plight,
The Christmas Spirit is in the air.

No Douglas fir in the world would be left bare. 
Kids from all over will feel sunny and bright.
Elves will handle the gifts with care.

Santa and his head elf are quite the pair.
Rudolph is ready for an amazing flight.
The Christmas spirit is in the air.

Spreading Christmas cheer is a joint affair.
Santa and his helpers are a beacon of light.
Elves will handle the gifts with care.

It will be such a magical time to share
because of its splendor this night.
The Christmas spirit is in the air.
Elves will handle gifts with care.

Gershon Wolf Date: 12/2/2020 7:34:00 PM Alexis. This is no cheery and light-spirited!... And here's a laugh for you too: Instead of 'elves,' I kept reading/seeing 'Elvis' for some reason. Silly me! Keep smiling, Gershon Login to Reply Alexis Y. Date: 12/2/2020 7:43:00 PM That's not a bad idea. I'm hosting a Christmas Limerick contest. Maybe you could write Christmas Limerick with Elvis in it. Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate your continued support;-) Alexis

Andrea Dietrich Date: 12/2/2020 4:13:00 PM good grief. you had even put the sponsor's name there. My skills of observation are terrible!! Login to Reply Alexis Y. Date: 12/2/2020 4:16:00 PM It's ok. My Villanelle needed to be read by you. Thanks:-) Alexis

Victor Buhagiar Date: 12/2/2020 3:01:00 AM I know very little about this form. Seems complicated. You handled it adroitly. So lets deck the halls by all means. ~~ Login to Reply Alexis Y. Date: 12/2/2020 10:56:00 AM Hi Victor, Thank you so much. This was an old poem that I converted in the chosen form. I hope it makes sense. Have a good day. I appreciate your continued support:-) Alexis

Tom Cunningham Date: 12/2/2020 12:20:00 AM Cant believe Christmas is nearly on us again Alexis, you've put me in the mood now. Good luck in the contest Tom Login to Reply Alexis Y. Date: 12/2/2020 10:27:00 AM Hi Tom, I can't believe Christmas is almost here either. I'm glad my little poem put you in the Christmas spirit. With everything going on in the world it was hard to write a Christmas poem, so I found an old poem and converted into the Villianelle form. I hope it makes sense. Have a great day. I appreciate your continued support:-) Alexis
