Notes About The Poem

December 2, 2024, placed 2nd in Andrea Dietrich's Alouette Me contest

**********************************************************************************

Enjoying the Holiday Season



It’s Thanksgiving Day.
First, we all convey
gratitude, for we are blessed.
Then comes time to dine.
Every dish is fine.
To this fact, we all attest.

Christmas time is here!
Gifts, goodwill, and cheer
fuel holiday delight.
Decorations glow;
kids play in the snow.
Church choirs sing “O Holy Night.”
