CHRISTMAS POETRY COLLECTION

AmericanPoet said...

FROZENWATER of CLOUDS
A snowflake lost to a drop of rain
Or a drop of water absorbed by the cold
The freshness ofMother Nature
Given to us as a flake of difference
We all represent that flake of beauty
Each different but always special
Molded by her, given freely
A gift to the world with love
We all float with grace
A beautiful sight when we fall together
Separated we aremerely frozen water
Together we fall to give a vision of awe!

G. Thomas Boston said...

REWARD OFFERED FOR MISSING DOG!
BY: JIM CAULDER 1-10-10
Dogs are never allowed in our house except on Christmas Eve. Rowdy, our dazzling white Eskimo Spitz and beloved member of the family, was ritualistically, washed and blow dried. Then stuff was sprayed, sprinkled and dabbed on, until he looked good, smelled good and sparkled like a stripper at The Doll House Lounge. Then he was brought into the den. He was so excited, jumping up and down yapping in short high pitched squeals. Rowdy would run back and forth, helping anyone that was opening a present, to tear off the wrapping paper. Then he would look at the present, look at the person and bark as if to say “I like it, do you like it”. We all love Rowdy. He always added so much to the evening.
This Christmas started out the same as usual. The evening went well. I did notice that grandma MaggieOdealia, was consuming more eggnog that usual, but she seemed happy, and it was Christmas!
About mid-night the presents had all been opened, the children had calmed down, the grown-ups were exhausted, and Rowdy was dozing on the hearth by the fireplace.
Promises were made to assemble what needed assembling, to locate the missing parts, to exchange those items that did not work, and to purchase batteries for everything that needed batteries.
Now, we could go to bed. Happy the evening that had been anticipated for months was over and all was well.
Grandma MaggieOdealia, volunteered to put away the food, straighten up a bit and blow out the candles before she called it a day.
While putting away the food, Grandma MaggieOdealia found the extra pitcher of eggnog in the back of the refrigerator. While we peacefully slept, Grandma MaggieOdealia sipped her way into The Twilight Zone.
We awoke the next morning to find Grandma MaggieOdealia passed out on the sofa, with a half glass of eggnog spilled on her lap and the electric clippers running in her right hand. The pretty red tablecloth had been pulled from the table and spread in the center of the floor in front of the fireplace. On the tablecloth was a half-leg deep pile of sparkling white wool/hair.
We woke up Grandma MaggieOdealia, asked her what had happened. She could tell us nothing. The last thing she could remember was thinking Rowdy`s hair would make a nice Santa Claus beard.
We finally found Rowdy, naked, shivering, looking embarrassed, hiding under towels in the laundry basket.
Grandma MaggieOdealia had too much eggnog and shaved the dog!
Grandma MaggieOdealia seemed as shocked as the rest of us. She slowly started to recall the events of the previous evening. Grandma MaggieOdealia was sooooo remorseful. She swore off eggnog, hard lemonade, all alcohol, except for medicinal purposes, beginning right after New Years Eve. She grabbed Rowdy, hustled into the kitchen, opened a bucket of lard and applied a generous layer of lard all over the surface of Rowdy`s still shaking bare to the skin body. Grandma MaggieOdealia said this would soothe his razor burned skin. Rowdy didn`t like the lard any better than he liked the close shave.
Rowdy broke away, slipping from Grandma`s grasp. He made a wild run for it across the floor, tripped over a ribbon, tumbled then rolled through the pile of discarded wrapping paper .The paper stuck to the lard covering his hairless body. Rowdy was now tightly wrapped and he skidded through the open front door, landed on the front porch, beside the box containing the 3/8” drill I had given my wife for Christmas .She said she was returning it to Sears because it was not variable speed. The UPS man was just bending over to pick up the drill box. He also grabbed up Rowdy, threw both packages into the back of that big brown truck and sped off down the street, while we stood speechless with our mouths open, but no sound would come out.
We called UPS. They were very understanding of our dilemma, apologized repeatedly, but could not offer much help because we had no tracking number. All they could do was guarantee that Rowdy would be delivered somewhere by 4:00 pm the next day!

GAMMABLIXT


SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE

There's much in the world that you can't explain.
It's revealed for you to remember
by the whispering voice of a distant train
or a midnight rain in november.

Horizon within! You can always find
the keys to Enigma. Let's mention
one basic Truth: of spirited Mind
is Nature naught but extension.

Internal expanses! In dreams, ridden
by fear and longing you roam
that deep Southeast in your soul hidden
...on your random journey back home.

As a native Swede, I am particularly proud of my love poetry suite Sonnets for Katie.

Rob said...

The March
All together
As one large mass
Marches through the city streets.
The undead, soldiers
Cross-dressers, Politicians
The sarcastic tee's, Entertainers
Religious figures, Masqueraders
Mythical sorts, and others in plain clothing,
The village is alive with the memories
and representations
of imaginations past.
Yesterday remains and lasts
longer of supposing.
Onward the march of the costumed mass.

Danilove said...

3 cards full of memories
Not warm, too bleak and unexposed
Two twined as the third is out of synergy
And all three finally see how things broke

26 times of blissful & amative love described as chemistry
All lead to a wishful mountain top of hugs & one unproven entity

I walked back down 11 miles to a lover’s rush that was sent to me

I followed this path and thought very much this was meant to be
Until I followed and followed this love into the middle of a winter freeze
And this cold wind always blows

All that’s left is a beautiful stem- she was the rose
And a road that ends where this love has froze

Lee Woodward said...

On this positive date, vestigial artifice of a long forgotten belief,
Celebration of money,
And chocolate,
And an obsession with traffic,
Time gained then laid to waste in the pursuit of traditional leisure activities:
Like DIY, and shopping,
And shopping for DIY products,
Or Sofas.
Like Christmas,
But with warmer weather and less hype.

Jesus, is this what its come to?
That I feel sorry for you, in whom I have never actually believed.
I feel sorry for your followers, because, although nowadays they rarely do themselves any favours, that’s not their fault, it’s the way they were raised:
Accepting their collective fate, openly avoiding their predilection for judgment in his name in the hope that by doing so, he will judge them kindly, while simultaneously thinking what all other people do:
I hope I’m right about this.

A man he wonders the stone cold alleys,
Dreaming of the stars,
Empty pockets and a hungry ache,
But all he needs is a tambourine,
A tambourine it entertains few dozens,
But if anyone was to die for such talent,
It would be the man in the alley...

Pick a Peck of Poems said...

My sister and I always LOVED Christmas catalogs and could hardly wait for them to arrive every year. I started remembering those experiences a few weeks ago and longing for a good old Christmas catalog in which to lose myself. So I went on a hunt for said catalogs and came across a site that offers thousands of pages from catalogs from several different companies -- spanning 6 decades. I fell in love all over again, and this poem was the result.
