**I have posted this for the past two years (making this year 3) and decided to make it a Christmas tradition on my blog. It was first written after a serious bought of insomnia, so I blame that…still.**

Please read this to the tune of “Jingle Bells”

imp-1889547_960_720
Falling in the snow
One winter, cold and gray
Over drifts we go
Cursing all the way

No bells will toll for us
Noise is not our thing
Let us be, or you shall see
What happens when you sing

Ooooh, what the hell?!, we all fell
Out of Santa’s sleigh
We don’t know where we should go
This Christmas holiday

Oooooh, here we go, to and fro
We think this is the way
Through the woods, up to no good
This Christ-mas hol-i-daaaaaayyyy!!

Ho Ho!

On Christmas Eve, Santa’s coterie of elves

Pack up the sleigh, and clear off the shelves

They have to make room, for next year’s toys

Being sure to make happy, little girls and boys

Up at the North Pole, the elves are busy building

Tap, tap, tap, all day long, working for the children

But Santa’s making merry, he’ll need a Corpse Survivor

Else, on Christmas Eve, he’ll need a designated driver

 

*For those not familiar with a “corpse survivor” you can find the info here

Friday Fantasy ~ Young Love – #poetry #elves

#poetry, betroth, dorindaduclos.com, elves, fantasy, Friday Fantasy, love, Night Owl Poetry, oath, poems, vows, writing


Young love, is always an elfin treasure

Joyous and carefree, by any measure

Through the forests, they romp all day

Dragons about them, watch them play

He’ll pick a flower, for his dear one

She’ll sigh with happiness, it’s only begun

He’ll make a promise to her, a solemn oath

That she is the one, of which he’ll betroth

For elfin beings, together, will stay

When two souls merge, on the forest pathway

Friday Fantasy ~ Lighthearted Daydreams – #poetry

Daydreaming, in a lighthearted way
Staring off in the distance, she sighs

Light in the forest, behind her
Daybreak, again, on the rise

Elfin magic begins its descent
She waits for it to draw near

Dancing about, sunbeams shine
This is her favorite time of the year

For the world around, grows brighter
As the darkness quickly fades away

Nature begins her spring rebirth
And the elves rejoice, on this day
