The House of Faux Pas

Like miniature models

along with easy-bake ovens

they cooked up a life of

dainty goodness for even

the visually impaired

Everyone had their role

to play

Said was everything that

pleased everyone

And everyone inside was

pleased

At least that's the belief

they held fast too strong to

Blue was never worn

except when driving away

Mister Man carried little pink houses

in his pocket

As Salty Sister kept the iodine bottle

close by and filled

with vinegar and the cotton balls

were not just used in the back

of the mouth

Oranges in linen sacks

slung on the back

There was never a lack

for the need of smiles to go

around

Norman Rockwell lay buried

in the foyer with his brushes

and sorted paints

Lovely dialects ticketed

and pocketed for safe keeping

Safe Keeping is where truth

is

I believe this is all about “Is There a Santa Claus?” and the answer would be “Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus”...

Great approach!

. oh gosh ... i recently wrote something called the faux pas survival guide ... but this transcends everything i could have thought of ...

Everyone had their role

Love this, because I'm visually impaired :) Hooray glasses!
I must say, this had some very vivid imagery in it. Wonderful allusions, too! I keep reading it over and over again and finding things that I missed.
Lovely job!
