‘Tis a Norman Rockwell evening In a Norman Rockwell town As Kaleb reads aloud a timeless novel His vocal chords ring rustic With the scent of Christmas jazz And at his understated throne we grovel
He speaks of Major Majors And of minor minors too And the gentle prose goes down like Sunday stew As on each word we balance Like seals on rubber ***** Anticipating each new line to chew
(Popcorn lights in trees! Pizzazz on every breeze! Pass the three cheese pizza, if you please! Serenade the stucco! Speak well to the wall! Bludgeon deep the deadly High Street freeze!)
Summer is for picnics And the springtime speaks of luv But in winter our pal Kaleb paints the scene In every shift of color And in every twist of voice He is our regal upstairs cadence queen
