Do You Hear What I Hear, Question Mark

The carol singers at my door,
I greeted them with tone deaf song,
My hand outstretched, they shuffled off:
I didn’t get a quid – what’s wrong?

Do you hear what I hear? For Kim’s Carolling contest

It's hilarious. well, I saw you had emailed me but I've got no time for emails tonight, I can't even finish my poetry comments. Joe does not start till tomorrow. He had to retake health test today. See ya. Andrea
