Holiday Flair

Wreaths and stockings hung with care,
baughs of holly deck halls that were bare.
Tree lights twinkling, a top a star glares,
Trimmings decorate banister and stairs.
Homes inside and out have holiday flair.

Angels with gold horns ready to blare,
snowmen with black eyes, stand and stare.
Amid children sledding and double dog dares,
a snowball fight, "WAR" one declares!
Laughter and bells ring out holiday flair.

Some people wake up to a nightmare,
winter storms catches them unaware.
Snowflakes fell from the night air
dancing on the wind like Fred Astair.
Glimmers with magical holiday flair.

Santa's sleigh with reindeer in pairs,
Rudolph's nose shines brighter than altair.
Middle of town is like a sidewalk fair.
Dressed up and looking debonair.
Shimmering with holiday flair.

Tis the season that's extraodinaire,
time of year none can compare.
Taking all year to prepare
Cheer spreads across the globe like malware.
Joyful and triumphant holiday flair.
