Bills don't jingle
  Coins aren't single
Hermits don't mingle
  Diets don't Pringle

Fingers can't fingle
  Though pingers oft pingle
Wingers wings' wingle
  When Bilinguals lingual

No, dirt floors haven't shingles
  Nor mountaintops dingles
But the snow still tingles
  The beard of Chris Cringle

Horn Christmas Season Poem

Horn Christmas Season Poem

Soldiers sailed home from across the sea;
They did protect and defend you and me,
So here at home we were safe and sound;
Our freedom and liberty flowing all around.

How brave and honorable they had been;
Integrity and independence did defend;
Were returning home as a loyal winner;
Enjoy with family a Thanksgiving dinner.

Delightful Christmas returned from behind;
Chris Cringle had come courteous and kind;
He was seen bending down on each knee
Placing many gifts under decorated tree.

Should have seen deer pulling slick sleigh,
From high up in the clear air and far away;
Came to our homes with many more gifts,
And our souls and spirits surely always lifts.

Always is season when we want to inspire,
Whole wide world with all of its entire;
From us happy feelings pour and pour,
While we worship God more and more.

Premium Member Missing You

Untimely lessons as i saw you there again 
just like always id notice the cringle 
in your forehead that dimple in your chin 
that funny way your eyes light up every time 
i enter the room i shall always remember 
your infectious laugh causing a chain 
of reactions of humility holding nothing back 
well I'll miss you even more now 
that i remembered Christmas..


Elf Ears

Tina was,
A tiny elf,
Like a doll,
On a shelf,

Her tiny hands,
Worked so fast,
She always had,
A Christmas blast,

Toys built up,
And filled the sleigh,
Tina beamed,
On Christmas day,

Her pointed shoes,
And hat did jingle,
She loved to work,
For old Chris cringle.
