Notes About The Poem

Hohoho


*Hohoho!


Hohoho, it's Christmas!
     Hang out 'neath mistletoe.
Hope soon to sweetly show
     How much you want his kiss!
Hold glasses of Merlot
     High up so he will know
His kiss and wine hold bliss!

* "Hohoho" is an onomatopoeia, which is a word that sounds like what it means. It is used as the sound that Santa makes because it is one of the onomatopoeia words for laughter, and is considered one word.

This is a great little poem, Sandra. I did look up the reference you gave but for me and the dictionary, it is still three words, That aside, it was a wonderful poem and you certainly can't call it HO. (haha) Loved it. Congrats.
