Tom has invited us to participate in this
Mansionic Pioneer Poem prompt.
Happy to do so, Tom!
The first words of each line are the rhyming words.
Each line must be 5 syllables or less.
The last two lines of the poem are the same
as the first two lines, only written in reverse.
Here’s my poem.
Twinkling silver lights
Sprinkling snowflake frost
Making-merry time
Baking gingerbread
Jolly Christmas morn
Holly wreaths and boughs
Ringing jingling bells
Tingling frozen toes
Gifts all gaily wrapped
Drifts of silent snow
Boys with trucks and trains
Toys and games for all
Girls with princess dolls
Swirls of petticoats
Tummy full of sweets
Yummy popcorn balls
Kittens in the tree
Mittens with white fur
Cups of hot cocoa
Pups nipping ankles
Shimmering lip gloss
Simmering spiced tea
S’mores by the fireplace
Doors with big red bows
Glowing candlelight
Blowing wintry winds
Sprinkling snowflake frost
Twinkling silver lights
