Dust off the angels
hang the lights and mull the wine
prepare a hundred thousand welcomes
for the season grows merry
and my hunger for it is as sharp as teeth.
Flip the script, turn away tired work,
give play its moment on the throne
let pleasures combine and laughter chime
let much too much be much too little
All else is detour.

So much to look forward to
yet, for many, so much to dread
The turkey with all the trimmings
the family gathered together --
to fight over ‘party’ politics
or gorge themselves on ‘football pleasure?’ ...
Is it a chance to praise this nation’s humble beginnings
or to cleave us further asunder with senseless sinning
C’mon, America: Isn't Thanksgiving for praising the Lord
for recounting the finest qualities of humanity ~
Not for watching football, getting drunk or stoned
insulting and embarrassing each other, and other insanity
Winter Spice Cranberry Sprite
a winter holiday delight.
It comes in November when preparing Thanksgiving abounds
On the grocery soda shelf holiday Sprite is found
Really don't taste cranberries that spice flavor unique
But it has become one of my favorite holiday drinks
Smells like Christmas evening after all enjoy and done
Tip offed with a holiday Sprite and reflecting festive fun
Sometimes you don't want liquor nor drinks warm or hot
That's when holiday Sprite refreshing taste hits the spot
It's fun when the bubbles tickle your nose amused
It's sophisticated taste both kids and adults choose
So if holidays are hectic and feel a little overwhelming
Take a break with a holiday Sprite and revive that holiday feeling.
november arrived
the flurry of leaves begins-
welcome thanksgiving
Holiday celebrations now start
As Christmas carols chime with delight
Marking long yuletide thanksgiving feast
That vanquishes dearth's attack…
Yes, our family yearns for reunion-bliss
Blest with God's love until New Year comes.
A hawk flew high, soaring...
a breathtaking dive and dip
(Watched I with jealous
eye). Came a great aerial flip,
leveled to precision glide --
my wing-full heart sighed:
Oh, to have wings!
Short time later, I was indoors,
at the dinner table. It was Thanksgiving~
Oh~ God, thank you for wings!
It’s Thanksgiving Day.
First, we all convey
gratitude, for we are blessed.
Then comes time to dine.
Every dish is fine.
To this fact, we all attest.
Christmas time is here!
Gifts, goodwill, and cheer
fuel holiday delight.
Decorations glow;
kids play in the snow.
Church choirs sing “O Holy Night.”
Holidays come with vacation-glee
As students from assignments can flee
Toward freedom flight
Outside classroom blight
Optimizing adventurous spree.
Oh, welcoming holidays with zest
Our pupils feel they are very blest
Praying* for grand days
To enjoy great ways
Not pressured by pen and paper test.
*Philippians 4:6 - Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Halloween is not just for kids these days,
as I found one night when all was ablaze;
a scary creature grabbed me,
and I kicked so I could flee ...
turns out it was my neighbour, old Mr. Mays !
Once, I was thinking of Thanksgiving food,
and the joy and fun mom had with her brood;
oh, fat turkey was just chilling,
and mom's dance moves were just thrilling ...
the oven never on . . . we had fast-food !
Mom yelled, Dad get a nice big Christmas tree,
so, off to the lot me and dad did flee;
we said, please we want one big,
one bigger than last years twig ...
stuck in door and we could not get it free !
Cute ghosties and witches are seen
And monsters are part of this scene
Here it’s called ‘Hop Tu Naa’
It’s quite easy to say
We never say it’s Halloween!
Each Thanksgiving I eat beef jerky
Thus saving the life of a turkey
Someone killed that poor cow
So I’m sobbing hard now
And moving to vegan Las Kerky!
BE NICE AT HALLOWEEN
Trick or treaters were having a good time
Grumpy Joe said you aren't getting a dime
He swore then he went inside
Kids were upset and some cried
So, on his porch they threw foul smelling slime...
THANKSGIVING HORROR
For Thanksgiving Pete asked Sue to his house
For eats he had ice cream, turkey, and grouse
Sue let out a loud scream
When out of the ice cream
A small head appeared t'was a baby mouse...
CHRISTMAS DISASTER
Fred went with pals for a Christmas curry
Felt pains and said guys "I've got to hurry"
But Fred was left enraged
All the loos were engaged
Felt warmth as his trousers filled with slurry...
A fine bird feast...
Stuff the beast, full,
make yeast rolls - too!
November came in downright quiet
Scorning seasons who bring a riot
Thanksgiving would come fast,
Scrumptiousness at long last,
Warranting you’d go on a diet
Sun shining bright in sweet November
Causing souls to surely remember,
Thanksgiving brings delights,
Sweetness in tiny bites,
Bellies eager to meet December
Here’s to Thanksgiving and to you
have fun, eat up, and give thanks too
big, swollen tummies
result of yummies
I’m just hoping that you won’t spew!
my Thanksgiving comes with a sigh
I’m a steak and hamburger guy
roasted turkey is not
the kind of meal I want
I'll chow down on the pumpkin pie!
