Will I get my wish seemingly Of splendor as in the ‘White Christmas’ movie Of strains of the nostalgic rendition of Crosby Gripping my soul tenaciously
Stretched across the doorway invitingly Markedly a symbol of love and fertility Of red, yellow and green like berries The mistletoe sprig rather sparingly Nudging the hearts of the uncanny Splashed of blind innocence truly Radiant with dreams of romance invitingly
Note: The brand name on the detergent box at the bottom of the picture was clearly seen as 'Ivorine' in the original photo ( but somewhat blurred here).
A Maid's Dilemma
Ivorine! Must I try another? They seemed all the same But Madam's lingerie was all tattered The previous one was bad A repeat tryout again?

Inspired by Stony River's Micro Fiction Mondays #61
A wooden sled in hibernation The weather should change I implored last summer Longing for the fluffy white spray from heaven My urging’s to roll and romp outdoor
It was tormenting to the young soul Ever anticipating but blind to the seeing eye Impatience reigned, the torture enhanced Questions in my mind, bring me the snow, I did cry
When it did , it romped home wild The highways were blocked, rivers hardened The airplanes were grounded and airports abandoned What’s happening! The weather’s unleashed its fury Floods, blizzards the cold at below twenty The worst since in recent memory It’ll soon end I'm hoping A decent winter in the offing!
