Maybe it could be a Canadian dance craze!? It must be a chore to keep floors clean in deep winter. You chose great artwork to accompany your poem! Leaves an image in the reader's mind.

    You may not hear the doorbell but you always hear guests stomping off the snow in the mud room. Thanks for the review and merry christmas. Cheers, j

This is a great contest entry! Perfectly illustrated poem. I enjoyed how you, in just 17 syllables, described the 'Canadian greeting' ... so creative and a joy to read.
Best of luck in the contest!

    You may not hear the knock, but you always hear the guests stamping the snow off their boots in the mud room. It's a Canadian thing. haha.

This is such a creative piece... loved it! Not your typically snowy wonderland entry for this contest. "stamping" is a great word! and "Canadian greeting" is terrific! A warm happy company's coming feel to this! Good luck in the contest!

    It is true, if you didn't hear the knock, you certainly hear that familiar stamping as each guest arrives. In Tanzania, they call out ''hodi'' because many houses have fabric hanging in the door way, and certainly no snow to stamp off. Have yourself a merry little Christmas. Your friend in prose, Judy

This 5-7-5, Canadian Tradition, has the right set up and zeroes in on the mud room and the place to find Canadian tradition. I guess it's messy, snowy boats.

    You can always tell when he guests arrive by the stamping of boots. It is heard all around Canada in winter. In Tanzania, your guests will call out 'hodi' as they arrive because many houses have fabric hanging in the door frame so no door to knock on and certainly no snow to stamp off.
