~ Happy Holidays ~
The Autumn leaves are now on the ground
Soon the snow flakes there will be found
Whitening it up with wind blown snow drifts
Ground covered earth embraced
with snow flake kisses
Wind will blow and howl outside
Logs will crackle and burn bright
Stay inside as it will be cold tonight
Soon the turkey dinner will be here to enjoy
Then on Christmas Dear Santa will appear
All dressed up in his Red and filled with cheer,
We will dream of Christmas, while we are in bed!
Holidays are wonderful to spend with you,
To spend them with family and our friends too ~
“Happy Holidays”

~ Thanksgiving ~
Thanksgiving a day of remembrance
of golden days passed bye
Prayers of Thanksgiving, that your living family
is in good health and prayers for the remembrance of our dead
Memory of the years passed bye and of future one’s of enjoyable times
Aroma of Thanksgiving holiday cooking
floating thru out the house
Saying a Thanksgiving’s prayer,
so that we can dig in to a holiday dinner that’s awaiting us there!
Bountiful turkey surrounded by good people and sumptuous Thanksgiving food!
~ May God Bless every one ~
Amen

What a day of practice we had
Turns out my buddy Rudolph is a freak!
He has this huge glowing red nose
It's a real shame too
Cause that reindeer could really fly!
But Santa doesn't want him around any more that the rest of us
I really liked it when Santa scolded his father
Telling him he should be ashamed of himself
He should be ashamed!
Probably ate too much of that illegal lichen
Everybody knows if you eat too much of that crap your kids will come out goofy
My dad never ate that crap!
And look at how awesome I look!
Except for the red hair I'm pretty handsome
Well, I'm looking forward to tomarrow
Practicing running and jumping into the wind and shaming Rudolph!

Santa Claus
Give me a porche with automatic transmission
Give me a house out in the country
So I can sing as loud as I want and not disturb my neighbors
Neighbors who live only feet away from me in my shabby apartment
Give me a perfect swing
So I can make nine million dollars playing against Tiger Woods
Santa
Give me a lifetime supply of preshucked Alaskan King Crab
With real melted butter from Wisconsin
Santa
If it's not too much trouble
Give me the ability to eat and drink anything I want and not gain weight
Also I would like to have the ability to fly like Superman and have his powers
I would also like to have a gorgeous woman like Wonder Woman
Gwen Stefani or Lady Gaga or Lorde would be fine too
Santa
Last but certainly not least I would like everyone to be happy
Have good free health care
Have loving relationships with their friends and family
And be paid a good wage and work only 40 hours a week
Thankyou Santa
Love,
Mike

I haven't sat on Santa's lap in about 40 years. Back then I was too afraid of him to say much.

~ Snow Crystals ~
Snowflakes Heavenly sent
Whispering their way thru the air
Flaking their whiteness upon the ground
With their lacey white beauty being spread around
Specking the land with it’s whiteness bright
Turning the ground into a snowy delight
Crystal dew droppings from the sky
Whitening the ground for you and I
Snowflakes magically floating in air
Makes us wonder if Heaven’s Angles are also there
Quietness, ecstasy and beauty too
Sending Santa’s message to you
Peace upon earth and mercy mild
To all it’s good people, he has a message for you
God Bless you ~ one and all ~
Merry Christmas

~ A Christmas Ring ~
Wish upon your Christmas Tree
Maybe it will come true
A ring around your Finger
Would it be just right for you?
A Christmas Tree wish for Connecting Singles
Wishing that wish comes true!
Does he know your size and what to say or do
A Christmas ring will bring you happiness
When you hear him say!
Will you be his girl forever, on this Christmas day
Give him love and affection
From your loving heart
~ You will live and love together and never, never part ~
Merry Christmas
Rings on her fingers
Bells on her toes
Will he give her a ring this Christmas
Only heaven knows!

Hey Firesnoze!
Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Stop calling me names!
Doner, you should be ashamed of yourself!
Letting that freak go out in public!
Remember guys we're not gonna let some freak reindeer
play any reindeer games, right?
So Rudolph was shunned by everyone
Except Hermee who wanted to be a dentist
Clarice the hot doe and Yukon Cornelius
Rudolph never got to guide Santa's sleigh
And he never got the respect of his parents or anyone else
Rudolph grew to hate the reindeer
But especially Santa who could have made everything alright
So Rudolph went to a gun shop downtown
And got a lot of ammo killing everyone
But Clarice, Hermee and Yukon who found silver and gold
And helped Rudolph and Clarice have new reindeer
To guide Yukon's sleigh
Hermee fixed all their teeth
And everyone lived happily ever after
The end

It's been a while since I dropped by. Christmas time often stirs deep seated feelings. It can make you cry for no reasons or reminds you of a few cherished moments. For me it always makes me long to be home with my family. So almost every Christmas I have gone home to NZ where my people are and now and then my beloved husband would join me like he did last Christmas! I love sharing moments with him; I believe going away together is the highlight of any marriage because it enables a couple to create memories they can look back to later in years. Moments on the road with my hubby means a lot, you can learn a lot about each other when you have to rely on each other.
We decided to stay home this Christmas so we can recharge our batteries before going back to work. That's the plan! We'll soon see! I'm not very good at staying home, I'm a wanderer and born with a pair of itchy feet. Life's too short and there's a big beautiful world waiting to be explored.
CS-PC was like my second family. So each Christmas I try to drop by and say hello to old friends and new people in the corner! Now and then when NU remembers to tell me he posted a poem or when I find time or can't sleep... I'd come and have a read and noticed that there are still many of the poets I knew when I use to be part of this family.
To Socrates, Steve1223, Rob (trurorob), elo69, Candy Kid, Joy, Kathy (US), Kathy (NZ), Redex now ExRed, Marikia, Soulgoddess, Yankee, Jimee, Abby, Morgen from Singapore, Happy C, QSF and our good friend Phyllis and of course Nuwahri61 and others I can't recall at the moment....I just want to wish you all the very best this Christmas!
The same goes to a few new poets whose poems I have come across while browsing.. like Yaspark ( haven't read all your poems but I like the ones's I've read) ... and then there's Salamuna or Lilly from Holland. I remember there was another Lilly before NU had amongst his female poet friends ...could it be you?
Read most of your poems, Nu seems to have commented on most...I know he doesn't very often comment, it is quite awesome when he does! I can only say... reading between the lines ... You shared lovely comments... what a nice way to inspire another poet. I can so relate to how nice or awesome it feels when you find that fellow poet who gets you. It's been donkeys years since that happened to me ?? ?? Thank you for sharing your stories and inspiring other poets in this corner. I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas! Always wanted to come and see the Floriade but each time I attempt.... something always happens. I missed out again last time. I think the next one is in 2022. If I'm still around...maybe?
It's always an awesome feeling each time I drop by to see familiar faces, read from familiar poets but just as awesome to find new faces who are instantly dear to the rest of the CS-PC family. Variety they say makes things interesting!
Although I have made a conscious decision not to spend a lot of time here (a promise made when we got married); if and when I find a bit more time in the near future I might still come and pour my heart out now and then... I am not an educated poet so I only mostly write free verse poetry organically from the heart.
I will always be grateful to Bill and Macduff. Inspired by their brilliance I managed to pen my one and only sonnet.
Lastly I would like to say thanks to CS...and the Poetry Corner for without it my husband and I would not have met. I prayed for a simple man and a simple life and God granted it hence I will always be grateful!
May the blessings of Christmas be with you all and your families! I wish everyone all the very best for 2019...may you continue writing awesome poetry that non-poets like me can come and find inspiration from all year through! May those of you still seeking for that special one eventually find it. God bless you all! ??????

Deep below ground crystals are forming
their matrix and brilliance unknown
No names yet assigned to any single one
Above ground are their counterparts
Michelangelo most mindful in omitting
the spark between the two fingertips

Be 165 pounds
Love people for who the are
Win the Lottery
Forgive my enemies, friends, family, and myself
Drink only two pops a week
Read one hour a day and exercise one hour a day
Visit my friends once a week
Fly out to California and road trip to Redwoods National Park
Get a job where I can look forward to going to work
Juggle outside once a week
Get an electric bike
Appreciate the time I have with my friends, family, and coworkers
Eat fruits and vegetables every day
Cook at home four times a week
Write at least five times a week in my journals
Worry less, a lot less
Forget about the past
Live and Love
