Wishes abound —
Celebrations galore — lights aglow,
Resolutions, that last a week.
No matter how cynical, the first day of a new calendar year is nothing short of joy. I had a quiet day of rest and relaxation – just the way I like it. Hope you all had/have a good day too.
It’s official; let’s get it started. New year, hopefully happy.
Sprits high, nigh uncatchable…
Christmas, most say.
Humbug, some declare.
Who cares?
Rum’s gone.
Merry Christmas, folks!

Trees aglow, shining bright —
Children’s plays, snowball fights —
Wreaths and creamy donuts —
Hot cocoa and wrapped gifts —

Thanksgiving isn’t our holiday, but since a larger part of the world gave thanks yesterday, I thought of chipping in with this piece. I’ve tried a different version of the Landay, and though I’ve broken a few rules, it was fun.
Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.
