Just a
House
A house is four walls
Neatly designed sides
Some have chimneys
That helps to keep it warm
Most have people and some
Have pets, some have joy
Some have regrets as well
Some become homes
While others just
Stay r e m a in
A house a place to
Sleep, argue, never
Say grace, pray, or read the Bible
Our pot luck dinner starts with New Year’s Eve soup,
made of glass noodles, vegetables, shredded chicken
for long life. Five minutes before midnight, we pour
champagne for the adults and apple cider for the
children in glasses, wait for the midnight hour.
We count down, scream Happy New Year,
raise our glasses and drink and each of
us go around kissing everybody.
Followed by our New Year’s
dessert, made of rice
cake, coconut
and brown
sugar on
top for
good
luck.
Have a
Prosperous
New Year everybody!
So
it is
Xmas, time
to rejoice the
coming of the Lord.
Time to thank Him for what
you have: family, friends, health;
time to think of what you have done;
time to be still in His presence---peace.
Joy
to
the world!
I
shut
my eyes,
what do I want
for this Christmas?
Big smiles
and laughter
of the children.
Talks, laughs, jokes, quips
while having,
the Christmas Eve
dinner, drinks, desserts.
Sharing our Christmas Eve,
our wonderful family tradition
year after year, we appreciate and
treasure and I hope will continue on and on.
Joy
and
peace be with us.
Women in my family-
mom, sisters-in-law and me
Standing tall as robust trees
Shading comforts for everybody.
They heartily leant at men’s wall
Making sure nobody will fall
Support kids morally and spiritually
Alongside with men, financially.
They’re strong to do what most men do
Carpentry for mother dear, go…go…go!
Sisters-in-law are very supportive
Brothers’ ideal wives, best moms to their kids.
Women in my family are all evergreen leaves
Unfading love from home to relatives- they give.

i
sat
a star
atop my tree for
all the world
to see
i
lit it
decorated
it was
a most delightful sight
my tree stood tall
i was so proud
dangling from each branch
i hung a wish for health happiness and love
dispensing wishes freely way out loud
merry christmas to one and all
i'd like everyone to have family and friends
around the table enjoying a fabulous festive meal
above all i mostly wish for health and a child’s passion for joy
love

Your innocence your purity your smile
So open so natural so wide
Charms enchants awakes
My spirit my eyes my pride
My spirit my eyes my pride
Inside in wonder in youth
To pray to gaze to praise
In love in awe of thee
