Family Christmas
A christmas poem for the Abecedarian challenge.
A good day to come I think
Before I get out of bed
Christmas was hear now and
Down the stairs I will head
Everyone was awake including
Family and friend
Gifts passed around showing
Happiness the trend
Into the kitchen I went
Just as lunch came
Knife at the ready as the
Lamb and ham was fair game
Mums roast is great but
Nans cooking always the best
Oven baked potatos
Pudding and the rest
Quilt on my legs but the
Room feeling warm
Sofa so comfy and
Television was on
United in the living room
Video almost done
Woodfire still burning
Xanthic light bright like the sun
Yes the night was over and what a day it has been
Zilch on my mind now that christmas had left its gleem

Hannah's Challenge
I joined Vocal two years ago, a prick of enthusiasm beseeching me to throw caution to the wind, pay the readies and have a stab at a long stagnated pleasure. It worked remarkably well. I dipped in my toe, finding the water a little cooler than I had hoped, but as I stood there up to my ankles, I realised it was rather invigorating, and by the time I was up to my knees, it was pleasingly tepid. I dove in and swam out to where others were tossing balls about and wrestling over lilos and proceeded to have a whale of a time splashing about, sometimes missing my footing or getting water in my eye, but sometimes turning elegant somersaults and graceful dives.
