5 Months

orchidee

Argh! Not 5 months to go

Will they seem like 5 short months?

Before the certain day, the certain season

 

If we think that way

It may seem to be always, or nearly always, Ch.....

Now I can't say the word, of course

Only in December

Or else Goldfinch will shoot me!

 

There's this gal, Carol

She only appears in December each year

Well, maybe early January too

Do ya know her?

And what's her surname?!

 

Oh, go away fat beardy bloke

In a red costume and welly boots

You always ruin the lounge

Fill it full of soot

When ya comes down the chimney

I'll keep a fire burning all night

That'll put the wind up ya! LOL

        Keep up the good work Orchi maybe you can beat that blame holiday back to next year. Don't think it would hurt much to miss a year. In fact under the idea of making it more special we should make it like World Cup and have it every four years. A fun read
