Before the first Christmas
there was Christ.

Before the sleigh
Before the conifers
Before candles
and the paper decor,
there was Christ
before he became the suffix
to all that's festive,
before he became less Christ
and more Chris.

Before we suppressed his divinity,
took away his dignity
and replaced him
with a capital merry Me.

Before Christmas became
more about gifts
and the turkey
Christ gifted himself
and took the part that was key
to making a path back
(by way of a starker tree)
to the eternal city
where Christ is rightfully King
and the real party can begin.

End of November

The air was turning crisp,
It was frosty outside,
People wore their cozy coats,
Their was a sparkle in everyone's eyes,
The fireplace was lit,
Some sat by the fire,
Snowflakes started falling from the sky,
From up a little higher.
Beanie hats were bought,
Some preferred some with bobbles on the top,
Everyone was running round from shop to shop.
A few golden lights,
Were seen from the streets,
A woman lit a candle,
& placed her hands above the heat.
A robin landed on her wall,
Just outside her house,
The sign of winter on its way,
November is nearly out.

A lil poem to get you into the Christmas spirit.

Christmas Cards

Holliday takes over novelty
Reality purged by the imagination
Open your eyes its Christmas time
Send cards to those with no relation

-Shivers of Winter

Down from the heavens came a host of pure white snow,

Dreaded winter has come to fill our lives with woe!

Dinner Table

You're still on my mind
the way you taste, and the way
you make me feel.
The world moves fast,
and soon, the time will be here again.
Instead of a turkey,
you've carved pieces of my heart
and reminded me of all the things I've forgotten.
The aches and pains that have taken
over the empty spaces between
the hands on the clock
work, bills,
pieces of my most intimate self
I've traded to sustain a living.

You've carved these pieces of my heart,
as savory as they can be,
and fed them to me,
showing me that the world isn't
that miserable
regardless of the fake smiles in a
fast-moving world.
My favorite time of the year comes
quicker, followed by my favorite
season.
Thank you for showing up,
and allowing us to feast on the parts
of ourselves we always seem to forget.
Next year, this time will come around
faster.
Until then, I'll savor the way you taste
and how good it feels to be around you

Christmas

White and Red
Christmas is all about Buckethead
Wonky bucketbots loyal helping-hand
Shred gift of magical BucketheadLand

Buckethead... seasonless Santa
Metaphorically & Literally
Especially Musically

A poem dedicated to Buckethead's live concerts, and how he shares and exchanges gifts during his shows. There's no need for a special occasion, especially when it comes to his music, the most humble person I can think of.

King of Limericks Nov 17

The night before the Night Before

'Twas the night before the Big Bang, when all through the void
Some notions were stirring, towards Darwin and Freud
Superstitions rejected and hung out to rot
It’s shocking how quick we completely forgot
Where cryptical symbols were sacredly spoken
The stories upended and images broken
From out of such Chaos, a chariot of Truth
An empirical prancing of paws on the roof
Now, Newton! Now, Einstein! Now, Herr Oppenheimer!
Now listen! the odious tick of the timer
From the Apple of Knowledge forsaking the plums
For probable visions and practical sums
When wisdom, by Turing, is put to the test
Then where are those letters to Santa addressed?
If coal from the mischievous miscreant’s stocking
Keeps motors of industry ticking and tocking
Then icecaps will vanish from under the elves
And Bezos will eagerly fill up our shelves
So with glittering objects and shiny bright trophies
We bid you Good Luck with a train of emojis

winter dust

her kisses
are hot cocoa, sweet on my lips.
her arms
a fireplace, holding warmth between us.
her eyes
are christmas lights, glowing in the cold.
her love
is winter dust, a most beautiful thing to hold.

i've always found winter to be such a romantic time. i'm a sucker for a cheesy hallmark kinda love

OH NO!!! THE HOLIDAYS WERE ROBBED!!!!

(Silly writing sense of humor)
If there were some kind of conflict between all the Holidays!! This is how it would be!!
(I apologize for it being so long!!!)

Christmas was Robbed!!
Leprechaun stoled Christmas!!
but Not the grinch "NO!!"
but the Leprechaun!! "YES!!"

Cos, the grinch stoled his gold,
He was uncanny, evil, bold.
It does seem kinda odd that
Kris Kringle just got Robbed.

The Easter Bunny got
Robbed from Cupid but
come on now that's really stupid.
Cupid took over Easter, so in revenge,

The Easter bunny took Valentines and
brought it to an end!!
The Easter Bunny thought he and
Cupid were Friends
Because, to the Easter Bunny,
he thought the
Friendship would mend!!

Once again, the Leprechaun had
gotten Robbed "Thrice!!!"
From our American Uncle
and that wasn't very nice.

Uncle Sam stoled his taxes,
his gold and Color green
now, that was wrong and
was downright mean.

Instead of Red, White and blue,
He saw the color green and
I mean like literally!!!

So, to get him back because
that wasn't cool,
month April stoled 3 colors
the Red, White and Blue,
Just to get him back and
to make him the April Fool.

Halloween stoled Thanksgiving and
the Turkey away
And told him:
you'll never see
A Day of Giving or your Turkey
Again!!

A Day of Giving was calm and
said that's alright!!
I have no beef with you,
you have one frightful night.
people are
Thankful like Everyday!!!
celebrating Thanksgiving
which falls on Thursday.

So, go away now because
you're such a fright,
Give back my Turkey and Thanksgiving
and to you have a Scary Fright!!!
On your one and only Night!!!
As you can see and
Holidays not mentioned,
they also agree!!

Winter

It's winter now
the leaves have fallen
it's getting colder
the sun comes out
although a lot less bolder.

I walk outside
and I close my eyes
breathe in the smell
of the fireplace fires.

We barely had the turkey done
when the stores
hung their garland
saying Christmas had begun.

With a new year
just around the bend
I'm thinking of resolutions
like mini solutions
hoping to keep them
in the end.
