'Twas
the night before Christmas, when all through the houses,
Not a creature was stirring, save raccoons and mouses;
The tree was put up in the parlor with care,
Expecting more relatives soon to be there;
The family nestled so they could stay warm
'Cuz the power went out (with no thunderstorm);
Uncle Louie flushed a ply so high it busted the piping
Even worse, 'twas a Tucks (intended for wiping);
The power came back and we turned on TV
Watching fake logs burn was all we could see
We even tried cable in hopes to see snowing
And the north east's the only place that it's blowing
Then came from outside the din of a mower
Only outdone by a shrieking leaf blower;
That's all that we need, dead leaves blown into gutters
Elsewhere Santa makes merry, but here he just mutters: |
Merry Christmas
to all, may the New Year be happy
'Cause God only knows, the last one was crappy. |
