Cheer . . .

Where's the cheer
That I should feel
Inside my heart
This time of year,
While all the televisions
Newspapers and billboards count
The shopping days for me?

It appears
To me that I’m
The only one
Who doesn’t see
The fine and natural
Attraction to what seems part race,
Part obstacle course, I believe.

Long ago I
Heard that we
Celebrate this season;
Anniversary of the birth
Of someone named Jesus.

Through the years ,
How my perception
Of it all
Has gone awry,
When so much manufactured
Hype and pressurized requirements
Make it all seem a lie.

How I wish,
Since its the time
Of year that dreams
Can come alive,
That you and I see one November,
When without the retail forecasting,
Some peace on earth,
Goodwill to all arrives.

More Dancing . . .

Dancing's done so many times
Throughout our dearth of years
Enhancing celebrations
And distracting us from tears

A dance initiates our being
We dance from womb to world
We dance through trials and tribulations
Til  a final breath is heard

To dance and to enjoy ourselves
Requires no specific reason
We do it without thinking much
It's always dancing season

No Matter . . .

. . . where they originate
Or their length or their size
Or their breadth
No matter the gravity
Of a thought they convey
Or if there's a lack of such depth

All's fair in this game
(or this passion; this craft)
Any scrap, bit or morsel is good
As in automobiles
Homosapiens too
Reserve judgement
Til you're under the hood

Have a bite of this now
Just in passing; a taste
You may find that it's droll; or enhancing
Nothing serious now
It's not science or skill
At this time, it's a season for dancing

Vantage . . .


The leaves are shaking, turning, rustling, falling
Blanketing all the horizontal real estate in view
Indicating the onset of a new season

The sun will be setting earlier
And the opportunities to comfortably enjoy the outdoors
Will soon be much fewer

But the change possesses its own unique beauty
And from this wonderful vantage point,
Who am I to complain?

Season . . .


The air betrays a chill
That while not unfamiliar
Is new to my summery soul
And the dark overpowers the sun
With a frequency not forgotten
Nor always welcome

Experience teaches me that such times
Must surely follow heat and light
And the seasons like life
Will turn turn turn
Like all the rest my years
As well will run their course

. . . in time

Cheery yet??. . .

Where's the cheer
That I should feel
Inside my heart
This time of year
While all the
Televisions
Newspapers
And billboards
Count the shopping days
For me

It appears
To me that
I'm the only one
Who doesn't see
The fine and natural
Attraction to what seems
Part race
Part obstacle course
I believe

Long ago I leaned that we
Celebrate this season
Anniversary of the birth
Of someone named Jesus

Through the years
How my perception of it all
Has gone awry
When so much
Manufactured hype
And pressurized requirements
Make it all seem a lie

How I wish
Since it's the
Time of year that
Dreams can come alive
That you and I
See one November when
Without the retail forecasting
Some peace on earth
Goodwill to all arrives

. . . and it's getting blacker. . .

Very soon, a tremendous number of the earth's population will observe a 'celebration' of the birth of a possibly historical Palestinian Jew over 2,000 years ago, to whom the origin of a mega-religious institution (and philosophy) is attributed.  This person, whether truly historical or not,  totally human or some combination of spiritual, human, super-human, affected all humanity in the civilized (or semi-civilized) world that followed in some way or another.

What better way to celebrate this occasion than to . . . go shopping?????!!!!!!

(from NBC News.com)
". . . To those who spend the Friday following Thanksgiving doing things like spending time with family, or working, or volunteering, or attempting to construct the world's greatest turkey leftover sandwich, Black Friday devotees are a mystery. Yes, an estimated 147 million Americans plan to go shopping sometime this weekend, according the National Retail Federation. But who are these people, what's the psychology driving them to rise before dawn in pursuit of a deal -- and have they really never heard of online shopping?

"The deals are part of it, but I don't think it's the bigger piece of it," says Jane Thomas, a professor of marketing at Winthrop University in Rock Hill, S.C. "This is the family ritual, as much as eating turkey and dressing is -- it's going shopping as the start of the holiday season together.". . . "
