Seasonal Songs
The holiday season has five types of songs.
(I almost said “carols,” but that would be wrong.)
The first kind, the oldest, is all about Jesus.
The folks most religious are whom it most pleases.
The second alludes to the jolly Saint Nick.
The kids are to whom it’s most likely to stick.
The third’s all the rest about yule celebration.
It’s apt for adults who could use a vacation.
The fourth is for other dates close to this time,
Like Chanukah, New Year’s, and Kwanzaa; that’s fine.
The fifth just pertains to the weather outside.
It’s best for cold places where snow can be eyed.
That covers the bases as far as I know.
If you can name more, by all means, have a go.
