Haiku - Holly-Days - a Poetic Greeting, Ever so Fleeting

Linda Ann Nickerson
December has come.
Bright lights flicker everywhere.
How can I greet you?

Can't say it, "Christmas."
Stores advertise "Festive Trees."
Happy holly days.

Might offend someone.
Maybe it is worth the risk.
Merry Christmas, Dear.

    Merry Christmas from me-Wouldn't it be nice if you could sincerely wish every one a Merry Christmas, Happy Holiday, Happy Hanukkah and Happy New Year and no one had an agenda against one term or the other?
