Christmas Poem,, H Garvey Daniel...Your Tagged

There once was a Santa from Nome.
From house to house he did roam,
When done he stopped for a beer
And some friendly Holiday cheer.
Alas…… he couldn’t find his way home.


thank you Carolyn..lets see what the chef can come up with...

My Favorite Season

my favorite holiday season
is when i can smell the 
aroma of hot chocolate
and pumpkin pies
when i can watch little ghosts
run from house to house
in search of treats
and eat dinner rolls
and mashed potatoes 
all day long
skipping the turkey

Trinidad and Tobago Christmas

When I think of Christmas
I think of sweet melody
Singing and dancing
Parang, Parang

Family gathering, great unity
Moving from house to house celebrating

Sharing and giving
Mama cooking
Everything finger liking
Party of the year
T&T Christmas

We Were a Motley Crew

We were a motley crew
No pirate flag or eye patches
Still we were gloriously dangerous
The neighborhood kids
The south side gang
We tore up the air with laughter
Running house to house with popsicles
Tormenting the dogs who chased after us
Wanting to be in laps that never sat

Dance of the Weirdos

ghostly nuances
haunted houses galore
madcap witches

trick or treaters
giggling with gusto
hoping to be scared

dracula howls
terrifyingly real
vampire sandwich

ghoulish gargoyles
hiding among princesses
going house to house

dance of the weirdos
octobers insanity
no masks needed

On Her Own

She sits and cries
18 Years old 
Fear of being out and on her own
Helpless and weak
Those words cut deep
Never taught the ways of life
Jumped from house to house
Not one person said 
This is how you do it
Little did she know
That the only way for her to learn
Was to get out there
And actually be on her own

Dream Home

Dream Home

I do not dream of a mansion
Not fifty bedrooms
Not with baths and toilets en-suite; 
I do not desire a Jacuzzi in every room
Not a penthouse for ‘Yours Truly’ and
A playroom for even the pet dog.
All I ask for is, a house to ‘house’ my HOME, and, welcoming smiles on faces all around me - after a hard day’s job.

It dawns a day every year,

Taking kitchens busy,

Making corn flour roti,

Children wearing happy,serving,

House to house,neighbors,friends and family,

Hot,hot roti,

Cats chased out,come back in again and again,

My rotis serve to houses coming back to me,a common,

I Remember Halloween

I remember Halloween how spooky it was at night,
looking up at the full moon with it's eerie light.
We would run from house to house collecting candy and having fun,
watching for the ghost and goblins that this night would surely come.
Now I wait for the children to knock it's less and less each year,
now my biggest fear is that Halloween will disappear!

Halloween Magic

Red juicy apples lying across 
round pumpkin fields
terrifying the scavengers

Black yowls 
dusting up the corn rows
Softening up the cats

Hallows Eve
Waiting around the corner
Eager to shake up the spiders

Witches 
Stirring October’s brew
In apple tree cauldron

Trick—or-Treaters
tromping from house to house
scared of nothing

In Search of Santa

He was told that Santa
lives in north pole, 
with his elves assistants;
making gifts for children
around the world.

He was told that Santa
flies from house to house
with the help of reindeer;
no one told him that Santa
only exists in Christmas cards,
commercials, and movies;
no one told him that the spirit
of Santa is kindled in each soul,
that embraces Christmas mood.

Trick Or Treat

( TRICK OR TREAT )

Toddlers walking the streets at night,
Running from house to house.
Images of candy fill their heads,
Costumes of all kinds abound.
Knocking on strangers doors.

On their faces are smiles galore,
Ready for the next house.

Time consuming ritual,
Right down to the last minute.
Emptying out the jars of goodies,
Always to say thank you sir or ma`am.
Treasures await them when they get home.

Dilemma

(This haiku isn't in the ancient hokku form).

Indecisive mind
divided feelings
state of no response

.........................................
Coming and going 
spell out your real heart
the miss confusion

.........................................
Wandering brain
from house to house
where is thy root?

........................................
Like end of the road
walking away legs
heart still in love.

Hours

The hours spent with her
are like stones that build a city
they lead to meadows fertile and green
house to house, a road in between...

Hours spent cuddling with promises made
clouds out of trickling rain
spun of lovely erotic music
hours freeing me of eternal pain...

Our love is a tapestry of minutes and hours
souls touching in soothing tone
blending together our longings fulfilled
hours with her such as I have never known!

Halloween

Summer is gone and fall is here
Truly my very favorite time of the year
The leaves are turning from green to shades of orange, red and golden brown
And there are jack o lanterns all over town
Children of all ages dressed in costumes for trick or treat
Going from house to house for lots of special sweets
And when the night is done
And they have had so much fun
It's time for them to meet and check out what each one got for trick or treat

If We All Had the Same Ideas

If we all had the same ideas,
How boring would life be.
If we all had the same thought,
What would be interesting?
 
If we all had the same grandchild,
How would we share her?
Would she have to go from house to house,
Spending but fifteen minutes with each of us?
 
If we all had the same taste in men,
Would we find him and chase him around unmercifully?
If we all had the same religion, and the same politics,
Could we get along?
 
I doubt it.

Winter Season Is Here

Halloween is a time of fun,
from house to house, getting scared, you run,
candy for you to eat,
what a delicious treat,
the holiday's have begun.


A festive time for all to enjoy,
weather you are a girl or a boy,
family and friends,
good times to the end,
No time for you to get annoyed.


Try to enjoy the winter season,
do fun things, just for this reason,
bundeling up very well,
while coming out of your shell,
trying at your best, to be on.

Santa Had a Small Break

On Christmas Eve Santa decided to take a bit of a break
He sat on the stairs, for his right leg had a small ache.
Let’s get going! Yelled Dasher from the rooftop above.
Santa wanted to do it; he has the heart of a dove.

So, he walked through his sorrow and limped through his pain.
To do what he had to do to make Christmas great on the lane.
He went from house to house through the rest of the night.
For to give up at this juncture would not have felt right.

Warm As Ice

Seasons come and seasons snow
For naughty and for nice
Wrapped in white and ten below
A blanket made of ice
Carols bounce from house to house
Adorned in bulbs aglow
A bearded man with sack in hand
Announces "Ho-Ho-Ho!"
Cocoa raised in cheers and praise
As laughter roams the streets
The trees are dressed and all are blessed
To revel in these treats
My coat and hat assure me that
The temperature is low
In lieu of cold I'm warm and bold
Ignited by the snow

On Halloween Night

Beyond the meadow pumpkins lay
Amidst the birch and bales of hay
Basking in the moonlit glow
Crows perch high on scarecrow

Leaves pirouette in the dark
Bats fly low then embark
Thistle swagger in the breeze
Just below the apple trees

Rabbits flitter 'cross the field 
Stalks of corn embrace their yield
Looming shadows high they tower
Ever near the witchin' hour

House to house off they go
Candy baskets overflow
Costumed tots laugh with delight
On this hallow's eve night

No More Tupperware Ladies

I am a frozen bowl lady! A frozen bowl lady!
I will come at your call, to fritz your icies, Said Sadie.
We did not understand at all, not living in mom-at-home-times.
It’s like the Tupperware lady, said someone else, My Auntie Frimes.

You would have to live back then and see their rallies, she said.
We chanted our song up and down, at the back of each other’s head.
Went from house to house selling plastic keepers with lids.
Until women went to work and the company fell on the skids.
