Some glow some hide
some share then joys multiply
some keep it intact & bide
solitary bliss adds to personal equations deeply.

Laced in gratitude entities pour
affections see a new high
friends in groups and in fours
add to emotional and pleasant sighs.

Familial flow of feelings surge
private worlds are lit
relatives & strangers merge
if done right its a hit.

Low-key affairs too satisfy
close ties get privileges
surprises & sweet nothings mystify
in itself a beautiful refuge.

Grander the better
sober the more fulfilling
each year a trendsetter
it’s all worth the sweet mulling.

In the bonhomie of wishes
pets & humans celebrate
this bag full of memories & dishes
year after year well wishers accommodate.
