Here We Have Three Holidays

December 1, 2020

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is the holiday season.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

A Happy Holidays poem to a child describing the three year-end holidays as three birds singing together in the snow:

Here we have three holidays,
All three in a row,
Perhaps like three bright songbirds
Perched upon the snow,
Yearly perched just so!

Hanukkah, Christmas, and New Year's Day
Open up in song,
Lighting winter's darkest hours
In trills both sweet and strong,
Delighting children everywhere
As these three birds the season share,
Yielding joys beyond compare.
So come! Let's sing along!
