Yule gathering
I spill the mulled wine
jumper sucked

On the Sight of Best Friends
It's not so much the black and white thou sees
but more the good or bad a person shows
for however nice their manners be
thou doth sniff thy way to what seethes down below.
And if thou be of dichromatic sight
with two receptive colour cells not three
thou cans't see more clear in dimmest light
and spot within the gloom whene'er there movement be.
Thou careth not for all our green and red
as long as we be good of heart and true
then thou art our companion to thy death
and break our foolish hearts for love of you.
It gladdens me to see thee lie upon thy back
and trust that I will bend to scritch thy belly-sac
