Bedeck with green
And the berries of December red
Over our heads white mistletoe
To reinforce the seasonal message of love
But add the brown of gravy
Over the cream of mashed potatoes please
And yes
Honey of the roasted onions
The yellow of the golden butter over the peas
Now let's hold hands around the festive table
Share the pink, brown, caramel, honey, black
Of our entwined flesh
Warm each other with a smile
And feel our little gathering most blessed

Woah
I am ready for the Christmas dinner
Drooling over the delicacies dressed on the table
Warm and happiness shall increase by leaps and bounds
Merry Christmas dear Lorna
Oh dear because I know there will be extra but you''re not here!
So unlucky of me
Good write Lorna.
Waiting for the roast beef to cook and guests to arrive..... taking a break and thanking you orchi!

What a colorful spread
Very nice.
May you be blessed in all things in this new year (may we all be blessed a little or a lot)
I’m trying to be good, but now, all I want is mashed potatoes with buttery brown gravy…
Kindest Regards
