plans for Christmas


This is a picture of a real tree we had in the house during 2002 at least this is what is dated on the picture. This morning I am looking at the neighbor's Christmas lights across the street. They were putting them up yesterday and the cardboard snowman out front kept falling over. The snowman is standing up straight with lights decorating the shape. There are a cluster of white lights on the front door that looks like an electric guitar. Different color lights extend from the bush next to the front door to the over hang above the front door. This year mom and I will be over at my sister's house for Christmas.
Christmas Poem
These Christmas lights are not meant to be
for over at my sister's house
mom and I will have presents under her tree
I will admire the Christmas lights across the street
and thought the work they did was really neat
Down the road the two Italian families have light displays no one can match
for one guy he said it took five to six days to hatch
He did it for his children he would say
after Christmas it would all be packed away
Meantime mom and I will be arguing Politics with our friend Joe
who will come to visit us from out of the snow
Only for a short time he will stay and back to the snow
on a jet and not a sleigh
This will be a special time for mom and I to stay
playing with the animals will occupy our day. We
will be back at the beach to welcome our new President
next year. We enjoy the time now before the time draws
near

    That is a really nice poem. Nicely composed. I have tried poetry only a couple of times and couldn't get anywheres. They say artistic talents are controlled by the right side of the brain and science and math are controlled by the left side of the brain. The left side of the brain controls the right side of the body and the right side of the brain controls the left side of the brain. Confused? Just reread it a few times. So if you are right handed and write with your right hand then your left side of the brain is dominant (the practical side). If you are left handed and write with your left hand then your right side of the brain is dominant (the artistic side). Are you left handed or right handed? Based on your writing talents, I am going to guess that you are left handed. Did I guess right. Have a good time at your sisters house for Christmas. It is nice for all of the family to get together at Christmas to celebrate. Here's hoping that you get lots of overpriced gifts for Christmas. Take care. Lew
