The Dance of the December Souls

Blended with fragrances And the joyful carols, The con games of children Looking for gifts full of fun. Kris Kringle’s cock-and-bull Make them rosy and lull. Adorned houses with odorous candles Christmas tree ornamented with red ribbons and jingles Marzipans fruitcakes and roasted chickens Caramel cookies and plenteous chocolates, The night illuminated With the dance of the December souls Gilding the lily with Buoy up Wine and Champagne glasses. Family gatherings and paisanos schmooze, Couples moonlit winter-warmth savor And the striplings night lammed booze, Queued brewpubs and bopping discos – The night illuminated With the dance of the December souls Gilding the lily with Few ill-famed shmoes. The Dance of the December Souls Flageolet till New Year’s Eve, The night at mid, lightened By the skyrockets – Gilding the lily with Full-of-the-moon brightened. Blended with resolutions and Hugs and kisses, Greetings followed By myriad of wishes. Clock ticked with few yesterday’s memories Tears backed up by today’s beginning.
