A Village Wish

How we meet in CyberMeet
can matter or scatter
No matter
How we hold in CyberHold
can bolster or alter
No matter
What we kill and what we keep
in CyberScheme
be the all-in, the all-out
Sure matter

In this season of will and desire
let sweet memories be the fire
In all moments of thrill and grill
let cool measures grow our hill
Beam what you hold
Share most you own
Dream on to gold
So, as the blasts and beauty emerge
We may all know to leap...
know to give...and sort our keep
for keeps

Page by page
soak the sage
The song be finely same:
Win some, loathe some, lose some
Hahaha
It's the CyberGame of chats
files and fotos!
Stage on stage
soak the sage
The lines be firmly same:
Tame some, trick some, tap some
Hahaha
It's the CyberTwang of twists
tips and turns!
Then, you must choose ya bunch
no matter da pay
Hohoho

Yuletide gives the slate
as you wish...and wish all
This villageman is victorious
with the songs of nature:
Be you green as well
This citysoul is cheerglorious
with the buzz of gadgets:
Be you digital as well
I wish you - one and all -
that special wish only you
can dare, and own
Happy Holiday!

This verse is a special dedication to my friend, Nite Tanzarn, who wasn't a great fan of poetry though an academic. Now, I get scolded if I do not write enough by this "eminent convert"!

Thank you, Nite, for being one of my guinea pigs in the field trials of PopPoetry! You have been right in your predictions - one of the earliest I got on this journey. Very humbling.

And, through my friend, may I wish all my other great contacts, readers and prospects a Merry Christmas and very Happy & Prosperous New Year!

Peace.
