Season’s Greetings
Hi Everyone,
Thank you so much for reading and commenting and visiting; I’ll be taking a little time away over the next week and may not be as attentive to my blog.
I send you Season’s Greetings! Whether you are in a big family group or are looking forward to some alone-time, I hope you enjoy the next few days. 🙂
Sliding on a Slippery Icy Road
Here is a northern take on Winter Wonderland (my apologies and salutations to Felix Bernard).
Doorbells ring, are you listening?
In the lane, snowplows glistening
A breathtaking sight
We’re trying tonight
To stand up on a slippery icy road
Gone away is the sand truck
Here to stay is a cold front
It screams a north gale
As we plod along
Sliding on a slippery icy road
In the meadow we will build a shelter
And crawl inside to get out of the wind
You’ll say are you freezing
I’ll say not now
But that’s a possibility later on
In a bit, we’ll perspire
As we sit in the fire
We’ll thaw and we’ll stretch
Sam McGee at his best
Sliding on a slippery icy road
In the meadow we can build a shelter
And pretend that winter is all done
That’s quite a feat of self-deluded nonsense
But that’s what happens when you’re freezing cold
When it snows, watch for frostbite
When it blows, get a tissue
We’ll frolic and play, the northern way
Sliding on a slippery icy road.
A little northern humour. 🙂
Happy Thanksgiving
I wish our American friends and neighbours a Happy Thanksgiving, and especially a Happy Thanksgiving to all the lovely bloggers whom I’ve come to know through WP.
No matter which side of the border we are on, we have a terrific lot to be thankful for.
I hope you have a good day, whether you are enjoying a feast or just eating a sandwich.

Happy Thanksgiving
Summer reflected in the bounty of fall.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Happy Fireworks Days
I am away in the far north at the moment: 68° north latitude, to be exact, in Inuvik, Northwest Territories.
We are in between the national days of Canada and the United States, so, I hope all you Canucks had a fabulous Canada Day, 🇨🇦 and to our great American cousins, I hope you have a brilliant July Fourth 🇺🇸.
Happy Fireworks Days!
Happy Valentine’s Day
Have a very happy Valentine’s day. 🙂
Twisted Seasonal Songs
And now … the moment that no one has been waiting for! It’s Twisted Seasonal Sing-Song Time!!!
Good King Donnie T (to the tune of Good King Wenceslas; arr. L. d’Arty-Cross)
Good king Donnie T looked out
On the Feast of Stealing,
When the snow lay round about,
Deep and crisp and even.
Brightly shone Till’s head that night,
Though ole Don was cru-el,
When poor Comey came in sight,
Gathering cabinet fu-u-el.
Jingle Coins (arr. L. d’Arty-Cross)
Jingle coins, jingle coins,
Jingling all the way,
Oh what fun it is to see the money stacked like hay – yay!
Jingle coins, jingle coins,
Jingling all the way,
Buy it all for Donnie dear
And sign your life away!
Donnie the Red-Handed Conman (arr. L. d’Arty-Cross)
Donnie the red-handed conman,
Had a very tiny dick,
But if you ever saw it, you would need to have a drink
All of the other presidents, used to bow and scrape and wink
They wouldn’t bar ole Donnie, from a little pressy dink
Then one smoggy Christmas day, Mueller came to say, Donnie with your hand so bright, won’t you join my cell tonight?
Then all the presidents dropped him, they went and checked their banks with care. They couldn’t believe he’d had them, even though they took their share!
And many other old favourites … 😉
My apologies (condolences?) to my American brethren for my references to your president. However, I just couldn’t help myself … 😉
