Mother said,
lie down and sleep,
My sleepy head.
Look, here comes Santa
Happy and merry
Not surprising
After mince pie and sherry.
Christmas stocking
Hanging askew
Now filled with love
And something new
Oranges? Apples?
What a surprise!
You should see the horror
In the little kid’s eyes
Where’s the Nintendo
You promised before
I can’t train my brain
With an apple core!
NB. This little ditty scribbled in league with the latest craze,
the NINTENDO TRAIN YOUR BRAIN game
ha but my wouldnt it give gratitude the stage...nice...

Smiles. I like it. Merry Christmas, Val. I may go missing for a few days. I'll be busy with Christmas, and our daughter, son-in-law and baby Zaeya arrive tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteLOL I doubt there's any kids would be satisfied with oranges and nuts in their stockings these days.
ReplyDeleteMemories of nuts and oranges. Is this your poem Valerie?
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas.
Brian, yes, exactly.
ReplyDeleteMona, have a great time with your family.
Pearl, you're so right.
John, yes. I wrote it last year.
Happy Christmas all.
Happy Christmas to you, ma'am.
ReplyDeleteAh yes, oranges and nuts....
Very cute! You should see all the video game craziness around this house this week :)
