2015
This is the last day of 2015. I will spend it eating fast food, drinking mt dew and singing in my car. I would sing karoke too, but they canceled it for New Year's Eve.
TRUE CHRISTMAS
Christmas has changed to commercialism along with changing Merry (Christ)mas to Happy Holidays. Mankind needs to return to what Christmas is really about.
Funny Moments in Christmas Movies
I watch a lot of Christmas movies. In this list I was looking for funny moments in Christmas movies. Of course there are a lot of other moments, but I was trying to do just one per movie. Saturday Night Live did a very funny retelling of the end of It's A Wonderful Life. In it Mr. Potter gets beat up by George Bailey and his wife with help from the mob.
Christmas Downer
I have a page a day calendar on Saturday Night Live. Todays was on Debbie Downer. A woman who always sees the negative side of life.
Bah Hum Bug!
I have been watching all the different versions of A Christmas Carol. The best has to be Alastair Sim as Ebenezer Scrooge.
Christmas Wishes!
Happy Holidays!
Christmas gifts
Just thinking of some of things that I enjoy during Christmas. Daddy's Home is a movie with Will Ferrell. He is one of my favorite comedians. I saw his Anchorman 2 movie four times in the movie theater.
Tom Turkey
A comedy bit on the Bob and Tom show. I have a bunch of their comedy cds.
Thankful
I do all my computer work at the library. Saves me a lot of cash. I'm thankful as I like to eat!
Turkey
I am getting a turkey next week at work. I used to get one at my old job till they got rid of the benefit. I wonder if the new employees that work there get a turkey. I still think it really messed up that there will be people working and shopping on Thanksgiving. Really messed up!
JACK O LANTERN
TRICK OR TREAT! I LOVED IT WHILE GROWING UP; BUT TODAY THERE ARE TOO MANY SICK PEOPLE OUT THERE; SO PARENTS;INSPECT EVERYTHING BEFORE GIVE IT TO YOUR KIDS!
Scary Stuff
Just thinking of some scary things so far in my life. Plenty out there to be afraid of, that's for sure! Happy Halloween!!
Trick or Treat
Trick or Treat is a movie from 1986. I just got it yesterday from Ebay. It is about a bullied teen who gets help from a dead rocker in dealing with bullies. Ozzy Ozborne and Gene Simmons are in this movie.
Tissue Paper Hot Air Balloon
Lit my first tissue paper hot air balloon this week. I am going to buy another to light tonight if calm winds prevail.
Ethereal Trip
I love the day And especially the night The soothing ray Of that ethereal light The freshness of air Breathing so deep I do say, I dare Take the great leap And float in the abyss Drifting by, ever silent Deep inside, perfe
A Summers Day
Because the warm weather has arrived those winter shadows no longer drawing out our life with its cold and dreary days. I just feel happy and am listening to music, the sun is out...so just share the moment and enjoy.
Happy Easter
Fellow poets, friends. happy Easter to you all and may His peace and joy be with you! God bless, J. 04/04/15
Pot of Gold

Valentine's Day
It is a very touching story about the origins of the word Valentine. Hope you have someone special to share Valentine's Day with.
Another Nuclear Holocaust Holiday
If only these holidays could be wiped off the face of the earth: Christmas Valentine's Day Easter Thanksgiving You name it What a wonderful world this would be! Then, instead of feeling like I'm being wiped off the earth I could be
New Year's Resolutions
Just brainstorming some ideas that would make my world and the world a better place. If I had to pick one I would pick #14. I see too many good people working too hard for too little. If a worker in China was paid 10 bucks a hour plus overtime pay, they would be making over 100,000 a year. I think they would rather work 40 hours a week, and have their time with their family.
Things That Happened In 2014
just some of the things I did this year. My favorite found old song was Last Time Ever I Saw Your Face by Roberta Flack. Favorite new Christmas movie was Jingle All The Way 2 by Larry the Cable Guy.
Twas The Night Before Christmas (Jail Version)
We have the largest prison population in the world. Most of the people in prison don't deserve to be there, but a few do. It seems that we reward bad behavior and punish good behavior in this country. I just think it would be nice to have the truly bad ones get a good scolding from Ol St. Nick.
Oh Christmas Tree
Merry Christmas and Happy New Years to all, Cheers and much love…Jesse ’When you’ve got an a** like the North Star, wise men are going to follow it.’ ~ Ron Burgundy the Legend ~

A Christmas Snow------monorhyme
A Christmas Snow The soft snow flakes fall gently coating the land, which to white is turning. Trees brushed white stand gleaming as Christmas dawns with sunlight bursting. A hush settles as people start stirring emotions high, children in
Holiday Wishes To You And Yours
Blessings to every poet on CS. Sending out lots of good cheer and magic to you all!~ Celtic
Presents
Just some of the presents I remember getting over the years. Some I still have to this day. The mouse trap game sits in my closet. I haven't touched it in many years. I should get it out and try playing it again, or at least make the guy jump in the pool. Hope you all get what you wan for Christmas. Merry Christmas Everybody!
A Caroling Acrostic
This 'surprisingly' just won a contest for a 'Christmas' acrostic. I think it was the idea of using the carols rather than the actual quality of the poem, that and the fact that there were only 19 entries. But what the hell... a win is a win :)
Christmas Star
I hope everyone here has a great set of holidays. I just wrote this because I was in the mood to.
Dear Santa
Its a Monday thought
I'm Thankful For
Just thinking of some of the things that entertain me. I'm still waiting for a song this year that has my interest. Royal by Lorde was my last popular song I liked, not counting Weird Al's last album.
Presents
The list is endless. I got a newspaper on Thanksgiving and it weighed five pounds. Advertisements for an endless shopping list of great deals. The only thing that left me feeling empty, besides the materialism, was having people work on Thanksgiving.
TRINI CHRISTMAS ( Shadow's Challenge)
Well I tried to give a picture of trini Christmas...lol and still feels like I left much out.... A P.S Thanks to Socrates..... "In Trinidad, traditional parang music is largely performed around Christmas time, when singers and instrumentalists (collectively known as the parranderos) travel from house to house in the community, often joined by friends and neighbours family etc. using whatever instruments are to hand. Popular parang instruments include the cuatro (a small, four-string guitar) and maracas (locally known as chac-chacs). Other instruments often used are violin, guitar, claves (locally known as toc-toc), box bass (an indigenous instrument), tambourine, mandolin, bandol, caja (a percussive box instrument), and marimbola (an Afro-Venezuelan instrument). In exchange for the entertainment, parranderos are traditionally given food and drink: pastelle, sorrel, rum and "Ponche Crema" (a form of alcoholic eggnog)." Black cake - the main ingredients are fruits (such as raisins and sultanas) that have been soaked in cherry wine, sherry and Caribbean rum for several months before Christmas. Additional rum is poured over the cake after it has been baked. It can even make one "drunk" if eaten in large amounts.
