POETS' LAIR
area poets share their work

published Atlantic Highlands Herald
9 December 2004


SUMMERTIME CHRISTMAS

My home is called Summertime

Because of the love and warmth

It brings to me, my dog Larry

And two cats Yardley and Hope and brought

To my departed cat Heather.

It is this season of the year

That the beams of the summer sun

Still remain with all the happiness and joy

That inhabit this Bayshore abode.

Its decorations of the Yuletide,

Its Christmas tree of white and glorious ornaments

Sing loud the holiday carols.

Home baked pies, hot coffee, turkey and trimmings,

The sunshine of life we have

Never leaves these walls, it is a part of the home.

Merry Christmas to one and all

Good fortune, glad tidings stand tall,

In this house called Summertime!


Holly Bianchi
