4 of 12 in the Jemverse ’12 months III’ series
December is here and as the first arrives
I am content for Christmas
to make its annual entrance
November’s too early or course
But this year there were ads in October
which borders on a step too far.

Starting to appear now
mysterious boxes
their fragrance filling the room
A promise of something
that’s getting quite close
in mid-December quite soon
What’s in the box?
my immediate question
unanswered of course for a while
The mystery continues
as excitement grows
coupled with winks and a smile

I found a moment over Christmas
Penguin Cafe in the air
In the oven, turkey roasting
whilst I was sitting there
My pen, it found the paper
and words came, as they do
from time to time as inspiration
a poem to eschew

This darkness isn’t such that I
Can brighten it by light I bring.
No laws of nature taint the sky.
No bonds bind it so it can’t sing.
The power failed, but should we wait
For what might not come speedily?
Some of us would hesitate,
But darkness helps our hearts to see.
We’re thankful for the light that’s near.
Praise sound, but not with our ears solely.
Our voices stir the darkness here
Repeating, “Holy, Holy, Holy.”
Merry Christmas

It’s the day before Christmas
so a walk on the beach
seems like a plan
as it’s in easy reach
And tradition would have it
that on this day every year
All Crouchers together
go walking with cheer

I’m working on a secret
for the Christmas holiday
Industrious with envelopes
in a mysterious way
No-one knows the secret
It’s safe up in my head
and lips are sealed as rumour
like a Chinese whisper spreads

All decorations
up by first of December
Christmas is coming
Though earlier every year
commerce would have us believe
No bah and humbug
despite my reservations
As into spirit
flowing with the tinsel here
my heart goes to the yuletide

Mid-December is here
We’re winding down fast
Christmas it seems
it with us at last
Just a few days to go
and all of them manic
as colleagues and projects
go into a panic
But the end of the week
slows down quite a bit
so everyone here
can get used to it

Based on It’s The Most Wonderful Time of the Year.
It’s the most horrible time of the year.
With the kids fricking yelling
While everyone’s telling me “Be of good cheer”.
It’s the most terrible time of the year.
