The Student DecemberTwo papers still to write,  Twelve-inch snowy Christmas shows  And a party every night.   
The town has come alight;  It’s luring us away from those  Two papers still to write.   
All our financial plight  Intensified by shop windows,  And a party every night.   
We’re chilling out despite  That scary way the time just goes -  Two papers still to write.   
But still we take delight  In letting all those set texts close,  And a party every night.   
Next year seems far off, out of sight,  But deadlines loom, and no one knows. &nbs The Student December

The Shamas CandleThis yellow stalk leads the others  
Melted in place, it guides the eight  Meant to shine beside its brothers  This yellow stalk leads the others  In deference to one another  Each flaming crown assents and breaks  This yellow stalk leads the others  
Melted in place, it guides the eight The Shamas Candle

Christmas LightsFireflies, flitting faintly through the night,  
Sparkling tails of anguished bright delight,  
Performing in perfect formation  Entertaining with indignation.  
 
The whips lash down upon their weary backs,  
Harsh and unnoticed electric cracks.  Flashing with the strain that they must keep  As the nation cheers, the flies… they weep.  
 
For lights, if stared into for long enough  Can blur the vision of even the tough.  
The happiness can sometimes be maligned  
If seen by one that, due to light, is blind. Christmas Lights

The man who fills our shoes'Twas silent that night  and all through the house  all my family was sleeping  including my mouse.   
Suddenly down front,  a scuffle and bang.  I stood up and ran,  "St. Nick's here" I sang.   
I ran down the hall  to wake up my sister.  "St. Nick is here,  the jolly great Mister."   
We snuck to the stairs  and peered down the well.  A shadow of a man,  tall, skiny, and swell.   
We knew quite for sure,  with one look at his mitre,  this was St. Nicholas.  Was that there Zwarte Peter?   
We slunk down the stairs &nbs The man who fills our shoes

Winter At The CapeThe leaves of red and yellow slowly fall,  As snow drifts gracefully on the branches.  The snowflakes that are wondrous and so small,  They fall all around, even on ranches.  The blanket of white covers the planet.  Pale snowflakes softly flutter to the ground.  Marvelous snow, who could ever ban it.  Even those on the dirt wish to be found/  As the storm ends, one more snowflake falls down.  Twirling and tilting while the wind blows on.  Perhaps in a while, it'll get to town,  And then once spring is here, it will be gone.  But for now, let use enjoy the landscape,  While the s Winter At The Cape

Season's FleecingsTime to roll out the salt again  Along the frozen motorway,  Time to wear one’s gloves again  And find something nice to say -   
We propped the tree the week before  And the baubles came crashing down,  One hundred thousand shards of red  And green were in Mum’s frown,  We’ll have a grand old turkey now  And have it with breadcrumbs stuffed;  But oh no! Clearly avian flu  Decided bluetongue wasn’t enough;  We’ll watch it snow in adverts  As our driveways pile up with salt;  And yep, we’ll give him a book again  But it’s not the Season's Fleecings

My Way HomeThe wind picked up and I shivered  Watching the branches on the trees sway back and forth  I gripped my jacket closer to me as the streets began to glow  Bulb by bulb, light by light, what a beautiful sight   
I was in awe, standing there in ankle deep snow  The town had really spent their money well  A wreath from every lamp post, strewn along with big red bows   
Posters and welcomes from street to street  “Happy Holidays Here From Nikita’s Bistro!”  All the stores supported the holidays  Those from far and those so near  Little Tibet by the bridge that linked a My Way Home

Green ChristmasTis the season for retail to rake in the dough.  Commercials and catalogs all tempt tots with toys,  the weather grows colder, the kids pray for snow,  the stresses of debt overshadow the joys.   
Commercials and catalogs all tempt tots with toys,  the kids fill their lists with gadgets and electronics.  The stresses of debt overshadow the joys,  but folks shake it off with a bankruptcy fix.   
The kids fill their lists with gadgets and electronics.  With spending and charging, more is the rule,  but folks shake it off with a bankruptcy fix.  What ever happened to the celebratio Green Christmas

Litmas PoemSongs continue bounding  Since November they came  My head-ache is pounding  Christmas songs can be lame   
I still enjoy christmas  Full of euphoria, fun  Celebrate things like LitMas  and use many a pun   
Spend time with family  and have a big fat feast  listen to many homily  have fun in the very least   
Christmas is not here yet  Still have many a day  I am in slacker net  for holidays, I pray Litmas Poem

Where Sun Meets the SnowWHERE SUN MEETS THE SNOW   
Young was the night  And the lights shimmer;  Everyone's such a sight  Brown, yellow, and white glimmer.   
"Ninong! Ninang!"  The children called;  Songs they sang  Even when cold.   
From house to house they go  With bottle crowns and empty cans;  Hoping to get several peso  They would even sing and dance.   
Christmas will be soon  And countdown has started;  Everyone's ready with their spoon  For noche buena to be parted.   
Alas!  It is 12 o'clock!  "Merry Christmas!" they all say   Where Sun Meets the Snow

God's ChristmasA reminiscent village ‘neath the towering forest pines,  sleeps softly in the flakes of heavenly sky.  They, gliding in their grace, simplistic beauty do define,  
the wonder in a simple awestruck sigh   
Within the central square, on benches ‘neath the barren boughs,  aged faces turn to catch the falling gems.  Remembrances are passed in simple prose twixt wrinkled mouths,  bright-eyed these ancient angels pray to Him.   
Their thankful praises rise above trees, a reverent cloud,  for all the blessings-past and blessings-come.  Clasped hands are raised in silent song, as w God's Christmas
