Crowned

                              Well I don't blame you, fellow,
                             for that strange look in your eye;
                              if someone put a crown on me,
                                 I, too, would wonder why!

Who's You?

                                  Now that this year has come to a close,
                             with all of its days put to bed;
                    do you think of the person you've left behind,
                              and wonder who's coming ahead?

Gratitude

                          Oh what a thankful person am I,
                   that settings like this can come to my eye!

Smitten!!

              When he stands up like that and gives me that stare
                        I tell you, I'd follow him anywhere!

Warm-up

                   When  Santa begins to send out his crew,
                   and too much excitement surrounds you;
                  if it all seems unreal, it helps when you feel
                         a comfortable arm around you.

Preface

           Well all right, it's December, we might as well start
                       seeing some colorful Santa Claus art.

Puppeteering

                            Isn' it nice to see kids having fun
                           with nary a bullet or battle or gun?

Lunch?

                       Now I know I should eat more veggies,

                                   that I can understand;

                    but I can't think it's right to take even a bite

                       of something they call "Buddha's hand"
