Welcome singing saw wielding troubadours,
Brighten the cold December air with tunes
So merry, so haunting.
Circled round, we press close for stories
Sung by a jovial jester in Christmas sweater,
So sweet, so strange.
“Grandfather in polar bear costume, his cigar
Puffs forth a blue plume,” herald of train cake,
So long, so past.
Mosley dog eyes Julian and company, ears
Tucked somberly during Silent Night for saws
So calm, so bright.

love that melophobe has more “couples” reviewers, and more “Ian/Ion/Ian/Iain” than the average site…
