Yule Dew

For Christmas, what I wish to see
Is you naked under my tree
You can bet the farm
That I'll keep you warm
And as happy as you can be!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yuletide bells chime~ frost-kissed air hums silver echoes, a hymn spun in ice. Deep beneath the muffled snow, roots dream of resurrection.

Yule Christmas

Yule/Christmas
Obscene capitalism
Can best be observed 
At Christmas 

Midwinter festival 
Larder full we share our
Luck with our nearest

Christmas is the devil’s revenge
He was never invited
Now he gives us hell with glitter.

Premium Member Yule Fire

Owls
Through the
Lapland snows
See Santa hug
Children’s wishes in festivals of joy
Reindeer wait in barren birch through long nights
For Aurora
To string lights
In Jule

Yule Tide

Yule Tide 

The pig
In the pen 
Is being slaughtered
To day 
Christmas starts
With a killing 
Some get 
Pork roast
Others get trotters 
 In the yard 
My neighbour 
Is hosing away
The blood
His sacrificial 
Duty done 
And I got a shoulder ham

Premium Member Yule Tide Acrostic

Young and old enjoy this day.
Under the mistletoe, we can kiss away.
Light up every Christmas light.
Everyone, see how bright they are tonight.

Tidings for peace on earth, we wish each other.
It is a season for every sister and brother.
Dear to us are all that are near to us.
Everybody makes this season joyous.

Premium Member Brand New Christmas Poem-Mr and Mrs Claus

Mrs Claus made a viagra eggnog To energise ol’ Santa Claus Yule log His frozen south pole recovered large-scale Wagging frisky as a puppy dogs tail. Mrs Claus dumplings hubby does adore Her stew warms up her Santa’s inner core Gravy so thick that it sticks to their lips Leading to bliss of a lingering kiss.

Little Corners of Life

Hot water feels like heaven rolling down my back
And even in the dead of winter sweet citrus reminds me of the sun 
Sweeter still my mom presents me with my favourite snack

My best friend’s phone is always on for me
I know that he always has my back
My icy breaths give thanks to every growing tree

My grandfather’s piano rings with charming sound
Although the nights are long, dark and black
I will always be grateful for these little corners of life that I’ve found

Cruel Yule

Desperate to fill voids
underneath trees,
within stockings,
and in children’s hearts,
society’s seconds, 
scratch-and-dent people,
unemployed close outs,
pick the bones of Christmas,
seeking salvation in
the clearanced, 
discontinued,
and reduced-to-sell.

It’s the thought that counts,
but it’s the cash that’s counted
when money’s tight 
as a hangman’s noose.
Each trinket is wrapped
in bits of brightness,
with love and hope,
and a prayer that it’s enough.
