ADIEU TO DECEMBER 2020 By Polly Guerin

 










The last month of this pandemic year
Brought us multiple gifts to banish fear

Through quarantine came space to grow
Develop talents you did not ever know

Realizing new skills in leisure time 
chance to grow and stretch your mind

You've become wiser with the gift of insight
Recaptured with your gift of inner light

Pospered on with all that has come your way
You've released old thoughts to enjoy each day

Rejoice in the fact that you are covid-free
A healthy outlook welcomes you and me

With a grateful heart move in a new direction
Move forward on an upbeat path to perfection 

And a lighter heart release pangs of loneliness
Introduce the new you grateful greeter to the test

Be  thankful for the year-long pandemic time
Gave you opportunity to reve up your prime

Releasing any pain or financial set back
With your healthy outlook you have no lack

Of renewed ambition  to get you back on track
Unburden yourself and guarantee some slack


Feeling lighter, you're ready, eager for the next year
With positive anticipation Adieu to December, my dear

IT'S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR:: By Polly Guerin















It's the most wonderful time of the year
We survived the pandemic, my dear

So let's lift our voices voom Singing
Let the Christmas bells be ringing

With Jinggle Bells and jolly good fun
Joyfully dance around old tanenbaum

Send Christmas cards before the date
Remember everyone before its too late

Feel the love and all that this day brings
Share the true gift of Christmas blings

Joy to the world and peace on earth
The light of this silent night and birth

Reminds us to tell the Christmas story
The divine light shines in all its glory

Read "The Night before Christas" by Moore
Tuck children into there cozy beds  before

Christtas Day awakens our thankful hearts
Read Dicken's "Christmas Carol" and start

To  enjoy  life's gift of those simpler treasures
Share the wealth of the season beyond measure

Wilth upbeat expectations greet the holiday
Be joyful. grateful to be here, I sincerely pray

Glad tidings to all, have health and good cheer
Because "It's the most wonderful time of the year!"

FICKLE FROST:By Polly Gueri

 













Must the frost of winter come so soon?
Autumn left behind had lost its bloom

Now  winter snaps her fickle frigid finger
We quarantine at home we do not linger

Ensconced in the cocoon warmth of our abode
We curl up in cozy fleeces to beat the cold

While delicate snowflakes like winter lace
Dance on my windowpane with unique grace

Each snowflake are marvel of divine design
Their fleeting frosty greeting a gift so fine

And confined here by the bitter fickle frost
Alas what care I, if at times I get lost

In winter's lounging, longing nights
Seeking silent sentiment until the light

When daybreak casts its golden hue
Over the mysterious brooding brew

And awakens our solemn silent slumber
A new day breaks in with wakeful wonder.

MULTIPLE BLESSINGS: By Polly Guerin

 












Unexpected bumps may detour
But life is never dull or a bore

Why fret, relax enjoy the ride
Let go of worry and hide

Pull off the worn beaten path
Live life fully and be glad

Accept whatever life brings
Be joyful like the eternal soring

Replace negative thought for good
Expect the best, it's understood

Even when difficulties encounter
Make ageless wisdom your mantra

Let blessing multiply in the good
Keeping harmony is understood

I wonder how to prolong the day
To find some time to pause and pray

May resilience reve up your heart
Meet every challenge and now start

Embrace multiple blessings now!
