Mayberry Sparkles - a Christmas Poem
Mayberry shines like a Christmas tree,
Neon lights tell our town's history:
Snappy Lunch, The Grand, and Blue Bird cafe;
Shining lights welcome and bid you to stay.
Mayberry sparkles like Christmas snow
Stores along Main Street all aglow,
Weavers, Floyd's, Foley's and more
Sparkling lights twinkle on every store.
Mayberry gleams like the winter ice;
Season's greetings from folks plain nice.
Main Street hustles in cheerful frenzy,
Gleaming lights festooned on every tree.
Mayberry glows like the long-ago star,
Beckoning folks from near and far.
Meyer's Lake, Kelsey's Woods, and local mountains,
Glowing like the star over Bethleham.

I've seen "Mayberry" in the summer...and now, thanks to your poem, I see visual imagery of Mayberry at Christmas time! Your words sparkle and light up Main Street as Andy, Opie, Aunt Bee, Barney and all the townsfolk saw it!
This is a trip!
Wonder memories, and an equally wonderful poem... well done!! :)
Sweet memories.
I love Mayberry...
it will always be, excellent job!
Mayberry will always be. :)
