Premium Member Christmas Decoration
Forgive me sweet, Jesus, for
Spending so much time decorating 
The Christmas tree and the streets 
Of my town

But 

Neglecting my soul to adorn with
The words of Thy message: To care,   
To love and to help those in need,
This Christmas!

Decoration Day
We called it Decoration Day
When I was just a kid
And up ‘til now, I never knew
Exactly why we did.

I always thought that it referred
To stripes that soldiers earned
Or stars and bars for officers, 
But that’s not what I learned.

I googled it to double-check
And found out...

There Used To Be a Decoration Day
Oh, there used to be a Decoration Day
Set aside for our Civil War dead,
That later was changed to honor all those gone
That live on in both our hearts and head.

But now it just seems another holiday
When we lay flowers and we grill steaks—
We scarcely note...

Premium Member Conversation To Decoration
It started with conversation
By out of work frustration
Heading the way of desperation
As they filled in their application

Many would lack education
Would it lead to their great expectation
By training induced concentration
Next day they reach preparation

We needed no invitation
To war went this modern invasion
Many came back in transformation
Whilst...

Gifted Decoration
Gifted decoration

Bestow innocence, 
And sincerity- 
unto me.
Explode my heart,
once more and again.
Saturate me;
With ache- 
and farce.
Give charm,
on everyone
And also glee;
Reward innocence- 
and sincerity 
unto me....

Premium Member Decoration Day
On May 1, 1865, Charleston, South Carolina, 
Freed African Americans held a parade of 10,000 
In honor of 257 dead Union soldiers, 
whose remains they had reburied from a mass grave
in a Confederate prison camp
Although Blight (historian) claimed
"African Americans invented Memorial Day
in Charleston, South Carolina",...

Premium Member First Decoration of the Season
The beautiful wreath hangs upon the door,

 Upon the door to greet all.

All who see it will have to smile,

  Smile as they recall.

Recall how festive the season will be,

  Will be for one and all.

All it took was a wreath on a...

The Decoration
The water-pool was 
thickly covered with
roses;
a decoration for the
marriage.
The fishes in the pool
died after some time
due to suffocation.

Some days later the
roses rotted.

Long live the
newly-weds!...

SENSE OF DECORATION

flattering in detail
 defined
   with such
dreamy effects

 common
   &undulating
in shape
so carefully
   constructed
beyond foliage
          a fingerlike canopy

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma...

Decorating For Christmas
It's the second week of December.
Christmas of course is my first thought
and the cards I should be writing instead of this.
Unwrapped gifts are over-running the closet
so I can't find my shoes.

I must get out my Santa collection, 
my grandson has asked twice already 
remembering some...

POOR CHRISTMAS' DAY


       


       In the humble, sad dwelling,
    last year's Christmas decorations
     still permanent, the same ornaments...
        signs and clues...

Smorgasbord of De-Light
Lights on the roof, in every tree.
Candy canes line the walk, come see,
old garnishments, many a kind;
can't leave any blow-up behind.
