Seasons greetings!
Christmas Blessings
by Mike K2
It was Christmas Eve,
no, rat-a-tat-tat from the keyboard in the house. Being so quiet, the orange tabby had his ear to the wall as he heard the snoring from a mouse. ****** The writer made it to church, the Midnight Mass, he was attending. With Alleluias sung and incense burning, he added to their prayers, the thoughts his mind had pending. ****** In his house, were no Christmas stockings or decorations, only a simple advent wreath. What he loved about this year was his new society that provided him everyday, with sweet relief. ****** What brought him to this site was a showing of his appreciation and love for someone who touched his life. The poem, getting a life of its own, took a turn down a road, that other people enjoyed, causing to him, strife. ****** But the underpinnings were quick to disperse, enjoyment was a click away. He hit this site, posted and reviewed, saying, "Hi!," to my friends that always provided for a good day. ****** This year I lost that childhood anticipation of receiving presents. Because it has been Christmas every- day, signing in and unwrapping your gifts from your literary presence. ****** Many of you became friends and even poetic lovers, people looking up to me as if I was a great, and as an equal, to those I held above. I can not but hold the thoughts of each of you in my heart; my love, hopes and prayers for you all, fly out of my head like released doves! ****** You have made it like it is always Christmas here. I whole heartedly wish and pray for you a... Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year! holding my glass up I vow, to continue to spread FanStory Cheer! ****** More so, then the people around here, you are more loving and comforting, even though you are from afar. Because of what everyone here means to me, "I rate you as people with my, 'Sixth Star!'" |

To be honest, if not for some poetic magic happing in my life this year, it wouldn't have been very good at all. I could have taken what happened to me and write it as a , "Fantasy Island," episode.
Every member can take a little credit and some pride, because of you, an area I never thought I could do well in made me feel like I have excelled.
My great works are for other people to decide, but through you I have ended up feeling that I have many good pieces that next year, I plan to try and have published. I am working on my flight control board to attempt to keep track of my submissions. My business thoughts of this aspect is that I am only going to write for the joy of it and then follow up and offer them out.
Have you ever wondered why it seems like only the dead poets become great? Well, that's the poetry business. Most publishers want a few months to decided on publishing your piece, but don't want you simultaneously submitting them to their competition. With this process the way it is, it ensures a long life of waiting. lol
I have freely promoted this site because of a certain spirit that I haven't found anywhere else. To the publishers that consider this another form of publishing, tough nuts! I plan to post here first as I consider this a forum of friends. No, Tom isn't sponsoring me, it is my decision to use FanStory as the custodian of my portfolio. My only official sponsor is Bermuda Triangle Airlines, the only air carrier guaranteed to get you somewhere.
I have enjoyed visiting your homes for tea and the walks through your concertos, galleries, flower gardens and minefields; such as it is with poetry. Also sharing in your problems, adventures, farces and contributing with my own.
God Bless you all!
