Season's Greetings

It's too late for "Merry Christmas",
Too early for "Happy New Year",
We're lost in a kind of limbo
Of conventional good cheer.
I don't know what to say to folk,
Tongue-tied by an exotic fear;
So I mumble and I stutter,
My greeting is unclear.
Then I just say "Hello".
 
This was written and posted between Christmas and New Year,
in case anyone is puzzled.
