The ABCs of Christmas Spirit

The Alpha Torqueo uses every letter of the alphabet with the first 24 alternating, i.e.,
Line 1 begins with: A
Line 2 begins with: C
Line 3 begins with: B
Line 4 begins with: D
Line 5 begins with: F
Line 6 begins with: E
and so forth with the last two letters in reverse order.

Each line has a 5 syllabic count except the last two, which combined, total five.
This style was invented by Kristi
This style named by yours truly through naming her contest.

“The Gift” <or> “The ABCs of Christmas Spirit”

A magic carries
crisp snowy lace as
bells ring in the dawn

Deep slumber swaddles
father and mother
ev’ry child Arise!
gifts from lists await
inside the wrappings
happy toys abide

Jellybeans and Jacks
lumpy stockings all
Kringle’s on the march

Mother creeps downstairs
only kids to see
no presents for her
placed under the tree
resting on stair rail
quiet, she watches.

Santa’s little dears
under twinkling boughs
tots knee deep in joy

Viewing through their eyes
x-mas happiness
worlds away they play

zilch troubles
Yuletide
