Christmas Eve Performance

Three armed teens 
performed a mugging on Christmas eve.
Their target 2A'D them
curing them of their social disease.

By next morning they set up a go fund me 
for the dead and wounded thieves.
Their target was charged in the second degree.

When I was a teen, 
we banged on doors and toilet papered trees...
and felt somewhat guilty.

Victorian Christmas Eve

There is happy ado on the old farmstead as Yuletide draws nigh!
Wondrous things to savor as gales blow and snow begins to fly!
The tempest rages for days - they will surely be snowbound,
But a blazing fire warms the Victorian home - love and cheer abound!

Since early in July Pa has had his eye on a

Dasher and Dancer's Christmas Eve Call Offs

The reindeer were sleighing through the snow's glow,
Their journey smooth, with Christmas magic in tow.
But Cupid, Santa's reindeer, fell ill in the night's shade,
The journey stopped, and Santa's heart was dismayed.

Santa feared he'd miss Christmas, and children would fade,
But then he thought of their joy, and his heart was displayed.
He rallied his elves and reindeer,

Dasher and Dancer's Christmas Eve Call Offs

Santa, pacing before his top deer,
mopped his face with a red neckerchief
He'd stopped caribou conflicts all year 
- but this wasn't your usual tiff

The decision to send them to school
had turned out to be one of his worst
because, unlike the previous Yule, 
Dancer now knew HIS name should come first

But the lesson that got Dance

CHRISTMAS EVE GIFT MANTIS

CHRISTMAS EVE GIFT MANTIS


In one hundred years
I saw a thousand mantises
on this Christmas Eve another
descended unexpected gift
for a northern Lightwave
whilst I stared at singular 
Southern sky

She reminded about stillness 
strategy soundlessness
embodied etiquette 
empathy reflecting my
mirrors
we practiced prayers
exchanging piety for 
piquant dreams
from triangular head 
could I trust in timing 

Careful calm collected
one leg up slowly 
shake

The Animals They Talk

Venus
Casts a tiny shadow
Upon the ghostly snow
From its candle held by an extended hand
Of a cloaked man
Who trips through the stripped trees

Follows the fresh trail of reindeer
To our second-floor windowsills
Then on to rooftops lined with owls
Comet tails thrashing through the oval

Stars

The kids pretend to sleep
To the faint smell of hay
Their red stockings overflow with candy

Merry Christmas Eve

You’re a whisper of gentle, soft as light
Playing on the shadows, 
Blessing the darkest night –
Remembering the beautiful on the winds
When my heart blamed you
For the melancholic it finds…

You’re a song of hope in my prayer
Breaking through the silence,
Melodies come to prepare –
My heart and soul, my spirit’s knowing
When I love, you are the vitality

You Better Believe It

You better believe it 
When I say this because, 
Here before you I sit ...
The one and only, Santa Claus 

When I say this because 
... I want you to believe, 
The one and only, Santa Claus 
Your eyes do not deceive 

I want you to believe 
Look at me, if you can, 
Your eyes

Christmas Eve with Santa Claus

“Twas the night before Christmas” four decades ago,
when my late ex-husband suited up as Santa Claus so
he could surprise our two toddlers and spice our
Christmas Eve party through the midnight hour.

It is our family tradition to celebrate Christmas on
Christmas Eve and we committed to keep it going on.
A joyous family gathering to welcome the birth
of

Dasher and Dancer's Christmas Eve Call Offs

It was Christmas Eve night and Santa was in a pickle
when Dasher was caught giving Blitzen a quick tickle
He and Dancer had been seriously dating for a year
but his flirtatious ways had her crying tear after tear.

Worried, Rudolph told Santa she refused to fly tonight
if Dasher was going to be harnessed next to her in

Dasher and Dancer's Christmas Eve Call Offs

Dasher and Dancer yelled midair
and said to Santa, “We can't fly!
Earth satellites have made a snare
of wireless currents in the sky!”

Then Santa answered, “Use plan B-
come down one level in the sky.
Take care and watch! Don't hit a tree
or steeple top as we zoom by!”

So they both did as Santa said,
though still, they'd be a

CHRISTMAS EVE

I’ll always remember that Christmas Eve;
That magical evening when first we met.
The picture’s so vivid, I can’t believe
It was thirty-five years ago and yet
It’s like yesterday I first saw your face 
As we sang our carols around the town.
You in the alto line, me in the bass,
Till you slipped on the ice and tumbled down.
You

Twas The Night Before Christmas Eve

’Twas the night before Christmas Eve and it started to snow
And a raw bone chilling north wind was starting to blow
Mrs Claus and Santa were relaxing with a glass of mulled wine
Santa said, "I hope it soon stops and that tomorrow will be fine."

They finished their wine and got ready, to retire to their bed

My Christmas Eve Tree

 

Twas the night before Christmas-
and my tree needed some decorations,
within a tattered box were some old creations;
from grandma, from mom, and from family donations.

So, off I went to dig through my locker room,
oh, that gloomy place was like a dusty tomb;
found them . . . all those old precious balls and stuff,
nothing new, most

First Christmas Eve

“The only blind person at Christmas time is he who has not Christmas in his heart.” – Helen Keller

On that long ago night,
Beyond the hills – burning bright,
Born to save us from our sin,
Bring assurance and peace within…

Jesus Christ, the joy and love
God Almighty sent from heaven above,
With grace that would surely prove…,
Choosing love, meant
