Christmas Memories


There was so much snow and so very cold,
But Santa always came.
He brought me presents and gifts,
Thoughtfully given with love and care.
It was so hard to sleep the night before,
As my ears strained to hear reindeer feet.
A smile upon my face as I slept,
And dreamed of my stocking and presents
Awaiting me in the morning.
We had one tradition the night before.
Open one gift and enjoy our special treat and drink,
It was Seven-Up and chocolate covered maraschino cherries.
It was so hard to just pick one gift,
The tree so pretty and brightly lit.
So these are my memories,
I hope you like.
May you each have beautiful ones as I did,
And much love to share with those you love.

Merry Christmas, bawbagz,
I hope you can read your Christmas tagz,
My handwriting's atrocious,
so don't be ferocious,
if your tags are illegible,
just be a vegetable!

Note for those who don't know me: This is supposed to be humorous. Laugh or don't laugh, just laugh!

To resist her gets harder and harder
when she stands there just wearing her garter
when she moves with her hips
and she moistens her lips
I forget I was hired to guard her

A bodyguard's nightmare... or dream?

Wonder why there isn't a limerick thread
If life seems jolly rotten
there's something you've forgotten
and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing

One Moment
For one moment I was loved
Unconditionally.
You held my heart, fully loving it,
Kept it safely inside your palms.
I never knew what I had until it was gone.
That was the only time I felt that way,
I was loved so completely.
I wanted it all this time,
Waited so very long, so patiently.
We cannot be together,
But I thank you from my heart.
For giving me my moment,
I had yearned for all my life.

When the day draws to a close
And all the gifts are unwrapped,
What is left to celebrate
But the smiles and joy of those around us?
I give. I'll make a better signature when I finally categorized those billion thoughts.

Today the wind is in trouble.
But this wind is weeping a little.
It seems as though,
the wind blew something unpleasant into the town.
Let's make lest the wind cease.

The time has come to reflect once more.
To think about what we have done
And to reflect on what we failed to do.
Amidst it all - we start the year fresh and anew.
I give. I'll make a better signature when I finally categorized those billion thoughts.

Whenever I'm here I see Cheryl
I think she must be watching us all
And I wonder what she must be thinking
As she watches us stumble and fall
Does she see how we love and we struggle
Does she see how we battle and fight
Does she notice us linger in daytime
Does she see how we don't sleep at night
Though it's only a name I keep seeing
I do miss it when it is not here
Like the castle that misses its keeper
to safeguard it from danger and fear
If life seems jolly rotten
there's something you've forgotten
and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing

Killer

You seep the blood from me,
Killing me quietly, draining my life away.
It hurts so much
When you come by.
The blood gushes and spurts
As it leaves my body.
I gasp and moan
In suffering and agony.
Silent killer, thief in the night,
You've made your plight.

I am an ear, a shoulder
A support to your crisis
I am your friend
Albeit an unreliable and flawed
Rock on whom to rely.
I am me and make no pretensions
To be anything else.
To take me as I am is to
Accept me for who I am.
Anything less is to do
Both me and you
A grave disservice.
I make no apologies for being me.

What could have been will never be
A life wasted it's plain to see
Only death awaits to set me free
There was nothing to see from invisible me

Did Midge get in the fridge?
and want more fudge but just a smidge?
but pralines and caramels got in the way
and he remains fat to this day..

Roses are red but lillies are cool
I once milked a cow on a 3-legged stool
and built a doghouse without a single tool
maybe I'm coal but someday a jewel

Ridiculousness seems here to prevail
When it's abundantly clear you need to avail
Yourself of something like sensibility
And be a comedian, just like me!

Roses are red,
That much is true
They are also a variety
Of other colours, too.
Violets on the other hand
Are never, ever blue
That line, m'dear. is patently untrue
Violets are violet, or purple or mauve
And that where this rhyme ends!!!

Violets are blue its true
Depending upon the view
If you're upside down in a cloud
It tends to change the hue.

pick up your guitar and pick up your pick
play me a melody, make it real slick
I'll try to find words to make it a song
to tell our girls that our love is so strong
that it could make us fly without even one wing
Yes, that is the song that I would like to sing

Something tells me that Paul and Andrew
Might come up with the best song we ever knew
A tune that will take us higher and higher
Even though it sounds like tennis shoes in a dryer
A melody that really clicks
And maybe even help them pick up chicks.

I'd be singing that song for the love of my life
Who just happens to be no-one else than my wife
I would sing here to tell her that I did realize
That I need her beside me, that my love never dies

I feel like a wallflower
At a party for two
A party that definitely
Does not need me or you
It's clear to all that P's eyes look
In just one direction
And that they don't need glasses
To make the correction
From discordant marriage
To reconcilliation.
That, my dear friends,
Is cause for celebration
So, in the spirit of renewal
At the start of the New Year
Raise up your glass
And let loose a cheer
For Paulus and Mrs. P
And their future to come
And watch wait and hope that
Two again become one...

I might be to old to giggle, but you sure made me laugh, what a wonderfully silly poem.

A tiny ant bit in my arse as I sat on the ground
And asked me: "Will you lift that thing, for if I must go 'round"
"I'll need a lunchbox, big enough, to last a day, or two"
"And I just want to be home soon, so move, and let me through"
