my friends said last night I should write something light something shiny and bright to the readers’ delight
no fights and no terror no soldiers no war no suicide bombers no refugees galore
after all it’s the season when altogether we sing of the love that we bring to each other within reason
so I am doing my best NOT to make a clean breast of the worries that plague me cuddle deep in my nest only welcome the guests who brings me good news and carefully wipes all bad cues from their shoes ere they enter my house
so to rouse our good feelings we all listen to the chimes of the church bells a-pealing
