Poem: MISTLETOE

By Cyan Frank-Hanachor

Doodling ideas for Christmas,

happened on a mish-mash of

craft in all the right colours. Quaint, its greens woven in tight whorls,

tiny, silvery bells tinkling merrily,

red satin ribbons in dainty bows,

a sprinkling of golden icicles ready to melt,

flitty, little dewy-eyed birds nestled in its folds

and for good luck, a tiny angel atop

sang if you pressed its little, bitty nose.

There was a spring to my stride as

I hung it over the door with a smile

sure that my good-luck charm will only

guide merry souls to my hearth, this Christmas
