Happy Holidays
This will be the first year that I'm not wishing for a white Christmas. I'll be flying JFK to Buffalo in the morning. I really hope Buffalo isn't snowed over!
On that note, Happy Holidays everyone. Here's a Christmas poem for you guys to enjoy. It's one of the ditties I write to put up on my website's opening page for each holiday.
We forgot the tree this Christmas Eve.
When Santa found out he must have been peeved.
I found our gifts on the front lawn
With a letter attached that told where we went wrong.
It said, “Look, it’s bad enough these days
That nobody has a fireplace.
I’m trying hard to modernize
In attempt to accommodate you guys.
But your doors have thirty seven locks
And those giant red sacks hardly resemble socks.
I had to send the elves to college
So they can build those fancy e-lec-tronics.
Everyone left cookies again.
That’s a lot of sugar for a senior citizen.
All I’m asking for is a way to get in
And a place to put the presents I bring.
Next year I hope that you’ll agree
To leave the door open and put up a tree”

Personalized Name Poems for Kids
I've had quite a few people email me asking for personalized poems for their kids. So naturally I've decided to give it a shot. These aren't going to be the fill in the blank impersonal ones you can buy anywhere. I want to individualize them to each kid so they can be something special parents or kids can hold onto.
In the next couple of weeks, check my website for ordering options. I'll post more info when I have it.
