The gingerbread house

It was a ginger bread house,


It was a gingerbread house I designed,
before laziness could denounce my ensign,
I constructed in earnest,
for the festive occasion of Christ’s Nativity,

It was the avid gingerbread house with
Candy and plums spread around,
spooky and sweet, definitely not nondescript,
for the festive occasion of Christ’s Nativity,

It was the gingerbread house we all relished,
with a vow to demolish all bickering around,
I prayed many a more ginger bread house,
Should ward off all our grouse.
