Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

This Special Season

   Many are the reasons
      for this special season

   Music traditional 
      cuisine nutritional

   The gaily decorated tree
      Santa's slide down the chimney

   When the weather's inviting
      a sleigh-ride's exciting

   As the sleigh-bells jingle
      the snowflakes tingle 

   And no one wants to miss
      Abigail's first kiss ...

   Just recall as we round the final bend
     ~ Peace on Earth, Goodwill toward Men

Terry Flood December 25, 2023 at 5:50 PM And I sincerely thank you.. you magnanimous person, you. Gershon Wolf December 25, 2023 at 5:49 PM Tell you what, Terry. I'll still give you a red ribbon, being the magnanimous sort I am, full of holiday spirit and all, and... ~ Comment certified 'shovel-ready'

Kim Rodrigues December 25, 2023 at 4:11 PM Verse 6 a mystery…still a lovely poem! Gershon Wolf December 25, 2023 at 5:54 PM O! I forgot to put my 'Dick Tracey decoder' at the bottom of the page... probably 'cuz I'm a little wobbly at 'decoding' these days. ~ Howling Wolf
