Before Christmas
An Original Poem
Tumblr media
Up the rooftop, feeling a pause
Was dear young Annie Claus
Her heart brimming with lots of joy
For this year she’d bring more than a toy.
Her heart was set only on you.
A love deep down she knew to be true.
Her father was asking that this Christmas she be wed
So she chose you, currently sleeping in your bed.
She dropped the chimney, landing with a thump.
A sound made you jump.
You ran from your room and towards the Christmas tree.
And there she was, standing there looking beautiful as could be.
Her fiery red hair caught your eye.
Her blue colored orbs just about made you die.
“Hey there I wish to be your bride”
She batted her eyes. Could it be true that she wanted you by her side?
“I’ve loved you for so long”
Her admission, her voice sang like the sweetest song.
“Please be mine. Say you’ll be true.”
The young Claus’ smile only grew, “All I really want for Christmas is you”
She held out a hand. You didn’t hesitate.
It was that Christmas, yours and hers wedding you did celebrate.
Every Christmas now you tell this story true.
To yours and Annie’s kids one and two.
You help Annie out with delivering gifts.
Every Christmas like a team running swift.
And every Christmas, Annie sings as you fly off together on the sleigh into the night.
“Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!”

Absence makes the heart grow stronger Or forgetful And yet when your presence lacks The tension slowly slacks And draws to unbitter, unbridled conclusions Let us making this parting official Striving towards that strength

Let me hold onto this year a bit longer.
Let me smell the cinnamon in the air.
Let me count the bells on Christmas tree
Let me stand in the crisp air.
Let me savour the last warmth of a dying year;
In its sky, in its tree, in its water.
A long funeral awaits us —
Let me hold onto Christmas over a new year.

Crisis at Christmas
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
’Twas the night before Christmas, And up on the hill, Rudolph the reindeer Was feeling quite ill. His nose had turned green, He forgot how to fly; The elves, all a-panic, Said, “The end is nigh!” And Santa came running, All a-huff and a-puff, Cried, “All of my planning Is never enough! Oh what will we do? What a terrible sight! How will we deliver Our presents tonight?”
They called the Avengers, But they were all out; The X-Men were missing And Spidey had gout; No help for them there. They called Starfleet instead, But Captain Picard Was already in bed. Batman was busy, The Joker was drunk; “Oh what will we do?!” Santa cried in a funk, And the elves all around him Gave out a great sigh: “It’s just like we told you— The end is nigh!”
Back he ran, forth he ran, Up on the hill; All in a panic, Santa couldn’t stay still, Till, “I’ve got it!” he cried; “They won’t think it’s nice, But we can save Christmas With the help of the mice!” Mice came by the millions, Took the presents away, Put them all in the houses Before break of day, Till not a creature was stirring; And in each cosy house, There would still be Christmas, Thanks to a helpful little mouse.

Christmas Poem
T'was a night very dark and dim, 
The wind did wail and howl, 
the seas did roar with fury grim, 
And mournful sang the owl. 
Dark clouds cloaked the starry skies, 
Hindering heaven’s light, 
The air was rent with sorrowful cries
That split the dreary night. 
But then the wailing wind was stilled, 
The awful storm did cease, 
And all things on earth were filled
With a strange yet wondrous peace. 
In amaze Men paused to listen, 
But for what they did not know,
And wonder in their eyes did glisten
like moonlight on the snow. 
Then there stirred in every mortal heart
A whisper, small and still, 
Yet it pierced the soul like a fiery dart
And with wonder their hearts did fill. 
Then suddenly the silence was broken
with a sound sweeter than song of bird, 
for in darkness a light was awoken
and a baby’s cry was heard. 
The dim-lit roads of Bethlehem
Echoed softly with that sound, 
Of the newborn child of David’s stem, 
And about the streets it wound. 
The dark clouds faded and fled away, 
And the skies were suddenly rent
With radiant light whose heavenly ray
Pierced the firmament. 
Twas a star that shone in heaven high, 
And Men marveled at the sight
And gazed ever upwards to the sky
Whence came that unearthly light. 
And in the distance, a celestial song
from high above came streaming
like rain upon the earth, the throng
of Heaven was heard singing. 
Over all the marveling world 
Sang the countless, holy legions, 
and their white banners they unfurled
Over all the earthly regions. 
Those angels’ song like dawn burst forth,
Sure and strong and true, 
To the East, the West, the South, the North, 
And like a wind it blew. 
In blessed music the earth is drenched, 
and all desires, cares and fears, 
are in one single moment quenched
as that song reaches Men’s ears. 
Oh, what marvelous, divine splendor
In those angels’ hymns of delight
did pour out over all, so tender, 
In glory pure and bright!
The sorrowing earth sighs with relief, 
Then laughs loudly for joy, 
Breaking forth into tears, not of grief, 
But happiness, for that boy, 
that boy, O Jesus Christ the Lord, 
the Great Immanuel, 
O Child Divine, O Prince adored, 
Born on earth to dwell,
To dwell among the Children of God, 
And to redeem them from the Fall, 
to bow beneath justice's rod,
to at last save us all. 
Then at last the children weary
Fall into blissful sleep
And dream of light and places cheery
In slumber buried deep. 
And high above the star still streamed
upon the tranquil earth below. 
Proudly it still brightly beamed 
in defiance of mankind’s foe.
And then the voice was heard once more
Still and small yet clear, 
And glad tidings that angel bore
in starry midnight sheer: 
“Lift up your head, be of good cheer, 
For behold, the time is at hand. 
For Heaven’s Prince of Peace so dear
Has descended to mortal land. 
A Light, brighter than any star
In a world long marred with sin, 
The Son of God is born in lands afar
To save his earthly kin.
On this night is Jesus born, 
The Lord of all Creation!
Weep no longer, no longer mourn
For here is Man’s Salvation!”
And thus on that marvelous night
In Bethlehem, House of Bread, 
Christ was born, the Living Light,
To save both living and dead. 
The veil between heaven and earth was torn
As with a shining, sharpened sword
On the night that He was born, 
At the coming of the Lord. 
Sing to our Lord praises undying
With the songs that angels sing, 
For in that lowly manger was lying 
Earth and Heaven’s King. 
“On this night is Jesus born, 
The Lord of all Creation!
Weep no longer, no longer mourn
For here is Man’s Salvation!”

Snow Rose
It is 11pm and the sky is white with snow. It has been impossibly cold for two days and like a fever, the sky has broken into flakes of ice. In the flat across from me, golden lights giggle at the sight of it. My own tinsel and silver crackles across the window glass. It is a beautiful night, it will be a beautiful morning.

Fireworks and mistletoe:
These things to make me happy, though
If I find no joy in all of this,
I wonder, would you spare one kiss?

I keep on pouring my feelings out, like snow they land on the ground and pile up, for others to step on them my soft feelings are turned into snowballs, other people don’t care and throw them around, judge me by my cold façade

Sometimes I wonder what would’ve happened if I had never changed homes
If I had never left my family at five years old
In a parallel universe, I was always with them
We celebrated Christmas together, distance was never a problem
Sadly, that’s not reality
I have to comfort my grandparents for something neither of us had chosen
Something that gets me in my emotions,
but was never our fault
It’s just part of something we can’t control, life likes to take its toll on the people we love most…

Christmas Days Past
Waking up,
the smell of freshly brewed coffee in the air,
A hint of something else in there.
Footsteps running down the stairs,
in hopes to catch a glimpse
of the presents under the tree.
Family gathers around,
knowing smiles.
Santa has come,
but they know who
it really was.
Children gather at the tree
in search of presents in their names.
Excitement reaches their ears,
as each gift is opened.
Everything they wanted,
was given.
Laughter rings through the air,
as the afternoon draws near.
Soon cousins and uncles will arrive,
With aunts in tow.
Dinner is being prepared
in the kitchen,
Grandma, mom, and aunts are there.
Children playing outside, in the snow
Air as cold as ice
Breath in the air,
like dragons.
Soon the feast will begin,
A prayer is said,
Then the family digs in.
Happiness is overwhelming,
With more smiles than one can count.
Holidays are special,
Because the one thing you need,
Is your family holding itself together
These moments are fragile for me
For there are many that were lost along the way,
But these precious Christmas moments shared with them
Will never be forgotten
Always living on
Through me,
And the rest of my family
Happy holidays to all.

Deciding Embers Vol.4, 12.23.23 “Solar Festivals”
Tis the season filled on spirits most jolly. In a bottle, you'll waddle most folly Beneath the sprigs and mistletoe, and holly Passing by crimson soaked robes, and other things -olly What's the point of it all these years Match girl dying, ice shawl and crystal tears Wreathed in evergreens; ever blues, ever fears The birth of the year ever nears So too had this season of death begun In dearth of greens and leaves soft as sun Laid to rest, by the bottle, just one Downed and drowned in sorrows before Mon’ Will there be a morning light, some proposed purpose That makes today worth all the struggle, all the fuss

The Night before the night before Christmas by Rose Mary Barlow in December 1966
‘Twas the night before etcetera…and all through the house
One creature was stirring, and that was NO mouse.
‘Twas Mama, with no kerchief, but an eye full of gloom
While the turkey was thawing all over the room.
Papa was asleep, and the children were dreaming
Of tomorrow night’s joys from the sky to come streaming.
Even Santa, away at the top of the earth,
Was pounding HIS ear in his own downy berth.
Meanwhile Mama slaved away 'til the morn
On last minute wrapping ere the great Day was born.
Now where did she hide those darn gifts for the kids
Bought way last October and put under lids?
From the top of the house to the bottom again
Mama raced to and fro and then into the den.
“Now Dasher, now Prancer, now Donder and Blitzen”,
She mutters and fumes as she marks 'Hers’ or 'His'n’.
The scotch tape breaks off and the bows fall apart,
While the paper won’t stretch…a new roll she must start!
The tree lights won’t work and blow all the fuses.
Pine needles clog the sweeper, which also confuses.
The coffee pot perks for at least one more cup
While Mama eases her back by just standing straight up.
A couple of aspirin soon remedy this
And she hangs up the mistletoe with a sibilant hiss.
The camera now…Are there flash bulbs? How many?
Does it have any film? But, of course, there’s not any.
No matter how long she works through the night
There’ll be plenty to do when tomorrow turns bright.
The moon does NOT shine on the new fallen snow.
The darn stuff won’t fall this year, Christmas or no!
Sleds and ice skates will be poorly received
And the children by sleigh bells will NOT be deceived.
“Alas! Is THIS Christmas?”, she cries out in despair.
'Tis enough to turn white poor Mother’s dark hair!
But at last she gives up with a shake of her head
And, still in her clothes, she falls into bed.
Tomorrow will be Christmas Eve, and she’ll say
“Merry Christmas to all”, for there’s always SOME way!

I suppose I am angry
With a fever I can't accept
From all those nights
Staying up late with a dad who couldn't accept
Who I was or what I wanted
Staying up till I see no lights
And I suppose I sleep angry now
When I wake, I see a room that isn't my own
As I'm still as angelic as the first
And it's already too late
To eat breakfast or ever change it
But I'm still as angelic as you want
Cause angels without their wings are pretty to you
And I suppose it hurts to wake
Does the red contrast well?
Being surrounded by archangels
Of perfection I won't be ever
Sweet Gabriel and Michael
While I am just here, burned away
Cause I dare speak of being clipped
And I suppose the crimson is pretty
At that Christmas morning,
I realized a truth maybe only to me
That God may love me but will never save me
In this world that I can't be in
I'm God's perfect child
But not enough to be saved
When I feel the wrapping of paper
I want to cry, scream, and screech
You put a doll in there, didn't you?
Or was it my wings?
And I feel your skin burn under me
But you said you loved me
So why does it hurt me too?
And it reminds me of those Christmas mornings
Around archangels and God
Praying I'd be like you
But I fell, so hard, so hard
And you were too selfish to save me
That's what my name means though
And you knew it all along
I was inspired by a fallen one
And I fell too cause you couldn't grow
Isn't that right?
That you can clean your mother's blood but can't escape your father's sins?
Sitting on the cold floor, I die
And die and die and die
But it's peaceful
Discorporated and invisible
Until I'm forced back near you
Then I have to be what you pray
And I wonder if God sees us
I remember the books
Dolls
Colored pencils
Candy
And even an orange in a stocking
Who knew this was to shape me
So, I stand near and grasp you
I cannot flee from my father
And covered in my mom's blood
So, just stop pretending you're not evil or corrupt
Cause I'm already too tainted
And I see you so angelically
