Seasons greetings

It seems I've forgotten the cards, oh dear,
I suppose I'm not sending any this year,
Instead I think I'll compose a sonnet,
with festive seasons greetings upon it,
sent in a mail for the impersonal touch,
ecologically friendly and it won't cost as much,
now don't get me wrong, it's not that I'm cheap
and not that the price of a stamp is too steep.
it's just that I'd prefer to spent my loot
on a few pints of beer and some peanuts to boot.
I wish you all happiness, joy and cheer,
and I hope that your wishes come true this year,
Singing Merry Christmas one and all and ole jinglebell
Best wishes from Blues hag, AKA Isobel.
