Mingle here
Mingle there
Mingle without doubt…
Be joyful always
Smiling against pout… Yes!
Mingle here
Mingle there
Get freed from gloomy clout…
Be blest this Christmas
Enjoy a happy route!

Let’s share our blessing
With love and caring
Let’s give with heart willing

“We Wish You a Merry Christmas” Tune
Our hearts now are very merry
Recalling glad Christmas story
Feasting with blissful flurry
Not feeling sorry…
We greet the New Year
With hope of great cheer
Thanking God for His grace
Deserving our praise!

In the deepest jungle
There lived a big baboon
He was very famous
He just loved to croon
It is very unusual
For baboons to sing
He would sing all the time
And he could really swing
The other creatures felt happy
They loved to hear his song
So some of them decided
That they would sing along
All the birds in the air
Heard that big baboon sing
And they all sang in harmony
As they were on the wing
Frogs started croaking
Cats purred and dogs barked
Snakes hissed, moles missed
As they were in the dark
All the animals in the wood
And the insects underground
All joined in the chorus
To make this unique sound
Haven't you heard the different sounds
When you go for a walk
It is very wonderful
How the animals sing and talk

you could hear the little jingle
from the assorted silver charms
hanging from the heavy bracelets
that she wore loosely on her arms
a pleasant little noise keeping
to the rhythm of making love
as I looked into her frozen eyes
wide open hovering there above
then the little jingles quickened
as emotions ran across her face
and together we both screamed
our pleasure into empty space
and the little jingles slowed
from the little silver charms
that she wore in profusion
hanging loosely from both arms

Each company targets specific demographics.
Except for fast food and coffee, where all are targets.
The use of English must be impeccable.
Their is no room for guessing when words are
missing and the reader has to guess at what word
should be used.
Listen to the very successful jingle now in use.
The hard working Korean's being such perfectionist.
The - it's all about you - a million dreams -
The perfect Air Line Commercial that targets U.S.

do not simply dawdle and diddle
for life may pass as a twinkle
hardly any time to drag and dawdle
in life, joy and sorrow may mix and mingle
before your powers diminish and dwindle,
enjoy it wilful as a child cheerily toying with shingles
for a change, play on the flute or fiddle
and on your toes, twirl and twiddle
or go for a walk with your funny, furry poodle
or write a peaceful placid idyll,
could even be a distrait doodle
life that is a tricky and ticklish riddle
is never a puddle for you to muddle
but is to clasp, caress and cuddle
let it ring with a jangle or jingle
even when you are sickeningly single
smile, showing your dented dimple
as stars in the sky wink, blink and twinkle

Snow White's Christmas Gifts
When Snow White awoke on Christmas morning
Seven pairs of eyes looked on adoring
Seven gifts there were placed beneath the tree
Each one lovingly wrapped exquisitely.
The seven dwarfs dearly loved Snow White so
All felt that they wanted to let her know
Doc gave a book titled "Take care of self"
He'd been most concerned lately for her health.
Grumpy got his face painted on a mug
So with each sip taken her heart would tug
Happy gave selfies he'd took of himself
To help her feel joyful inside herself.
Sleepy bought her a pretty alarm clock
So when he nods off she'd give him a knock
One with a chime of a nursery rhyme
It seemed a grand idea at the time.
Bashful was shy so it was no surprise
He'd written a poem just for her eyes
Sneezy cant shop when the weathers breezy
So he'd made her a badge saying "Squeeze Me."
Last one of all was the gift from Dopey
She couldn't help but just love his baloney
Composure cracked with his card saying that
"Love you to the moon and all the way back.”
Bless 'em all!

One Froggy Christmas Eve
A Frog went a-courtin' one Christmas Eve
Arms full of flowers for his latest squeeze
She is a sweet tiny mouse who's named Jane
And lives in a tree house down Mouse-Hole Lane.
He held her tight beneath wintry moonlight
But then it snowed mercilessly that night
Jane got buried in snow, Frog went berserk
Waiting for his dear sweetheart to emerge.
Frog croaked all night, such a pitiful sight
Wondering why for him nothing goes right
Then bells from afar brought hope to his heart
‘Twas Santa arriving on the sleigh cart.
Santa came trudging along though the snow
With his troop of reindeer helpers in tow
"What's up Frog" Santa Clause clothed in red said
"My girlfriend Jane is under snow lain dead."
Santa chose Rudolph the strongest reindeer
To start digging carefully around here
Rudolph stood proudly puffing out his chest
Pleased to be asked, assuredly said “yes.”
Rudolph used his red-nose to dig up snow
A faint little voice squeaked "hello, hello”
It was mouse Jane, she’d come alive again
Making Christmas merry down Mouse-Hole Lane.

Jittery glittery tree
A mouse ran up the Christmas tree
Scaring the life from the fairy
Cat did too, with dog in pursuit
'Twas a fiasco and quite hairy.
Fairy's heart raced seeing the chase
The dog bit the cat on the bum
The tree lights flashed, the tree it crashed
And cat had the mouse in a scrum.
Poor fairy flew off, nerves were shot
It wasn't how a Christmas should be
She cared not a jot for this lot
Her intention was to seek peace.
The lady of the house rushed in
To find what was making the din
Kids lovin’ home movie herein
Were sent to bed with a warnin'
Mother had to clear up the mess
While dad took the cat to the vet
Mouse ran away from the affray
Mice who have laughed last, laugh best.

Dear old woman who lives in a shoe
The dear old woman who’s house is a shoe
For Christmas she doesn't know what she can do
She can't afford beer for seasonal cheer
And her kids will have no presents this year.
On top of it all her cupboard is bare
She looked in her purse and nothing was there
Hungry mouths she can't feed has her in tears
Yesterday's dreams have become kilns of fears.
What's more her love interest's gone away
He just could not stand her another day
The home is too cold and way far too old
With no room for all who live in the fold.
He told her that he never would come back
He wanted to live in a decent shack
He'd found soothing balm in another's arms
A beautiful lady of many charms.
That is what hurt her inside most of all
More than dear old Humpty Dumpty's big fall
No King's horses, not even the King's men
Could put her heart back together again.

Bo-Peep Cannot Sleep
Poor Little Bo-Peep can't drift off to sleep
Being far too excited to even count sheep
Can't wait can she, to wake up and see
The prezzies that Santa's left under the tree.
There's only a few more nights left to go
Till Santa arrives with a loud 'Ho! Ho! Ho!
Bo so hopes it snows, and should that be so
Her fleece get the chance to gambol in snow.
She closed her eyes as tightly as she could
As any small sleepy shepherdess should
Sheep still awake thought they’d have a party
So pranced o’er the meadow hale and hearty.
Then cross with her flock for disturbing her sleep
She snapped "that's no way to be treating Bo-Peep"
Those naughty sheep gave her a sorrowful bleat
She forgave them right there and sang lullabaa's sweet.

Marketing jingles can be quite amusing but at times, rather confusing..
"on the corner of health and happiness", now just where would that corner be? Will I find it at every Walgreen's store in my community? In our gas tanks, doughnuts are a plunk en, causes every one knows, "America runs on Dunkin".
Things might not sound right, things might get stuck, if I let you put the "trick in my truck". Would I be stalking you, a crime most reportable if I "follow you to fresh and affordable?" Most canned catfood truly stinks to say the least so why would they call it "fancy feast?" If your blinds aren't becoming to you, they should becoming to us", well how are they supposed to get there? Are they supposed to take the bus? So be careful what your jingles say, as they can be interpreted many a way..

Desire from the river
Movements of the jingle
Timeless calls of your smile
Moons inside your soft voice
Movements of the jingle
On the light amber ankle
Moons inside your soft voice
Like the solitary poetry
On the light amber ankle
Sits the whisper of eons
Like the solitary poetry
Hearts in intense body
Sits the whispers of eons
In the overwhelmed wings
Hearts in intense body
In the enchanting ripples
In the overwhelmed wings
Timeless calls of your smile
In the enchanting ripples
Desire from the river

Trick or treat
Smell my feet
Given me something good to eat
If you don’t
I don’t care
I’ll pull down your underwear

she sings so softly
beside this balcony
the heart of my niger –
ah, she weeps her freshness
thru the age-long depths
of the sea & young birds
by their cheerful nests
echo her lustrous songs
she is like our dove
she breathes some new life
into hearts full of strife -
& under her giant wings
june comes - o, she comes!
with her barn of songs
to this balcony, our life;
& sitting are the elders
full of yesterday’s tears
beside a balcony of fears -
ah, a rude trumpeter pipes
’tis a trinket of many voices
imitating the rustic songs
o, these hurried jingles
mar the voice of the drums.
