 Holiday Nuts
 
 It’s (the) time of the year
 cold outside but the party is warm
 there are acorns, almonds
 pistachios and
 pecans in display
 
 What a parade
 hard maybe the shell
 cold maybe the cover
 yet deep within
 we are nuts coming out:
 
 Season’s greetings to all!

 Very homey. 为什么 the 要加括号?是不是代表 " nuts" ?
 看到nuts就想笑。Yes, we go nuts, we are all nuts.
 
 Season's greetings to one and all!

 |  Happy 2016 to you, Lake.
 
 good question, here
 (the) : gives a visual effect the nut is about to crack, () is more like the shell in a way
 
 also, "it's time" has a different meaning than "it's the time,"
 the word 'the' makes all the difference, ha!
