Twas the night before Christmas
At Balladeer's house,
Not a creature was stirring,
(You can bet not a mouse)

Poor Balladeer,
Was all snug in his bed,
While visions of cockroaches,
Danced in his head.

Milk and cheap cookies,
Were left by the hearth,
A bag and some Pepto,
In case Santa should barf.

All of a sudden,
He heard such a clatter,
He jumped outta bed,
To see what's the matter.

Up on the rooftop,
Santa was twitching,
The reindeer were scratching,
Shaking and itching.

With Balladeer's knowledge,
And without hesitation,
He knew of the answer,
A flea infestation!

He ran next store,
To his sailor friend LongJohn,
Got his X-girlfriend's bathsoap,'
(Walmart Diazinon)

He opened the top,
Put it on Blitzen,
On Prancer-on Dancer,
And finally on Vixen.

(You've heard of Vixen,
That reindeer that's blonde,
She once had this "thing"
For that sailor LongJohn)

The reindeer felt better,
It was after eleven,
Santa kept itching,
Deer dusted with "Sevin"

Then Santa went off
He yelled over his back,
"Merry Christmas to all"
By "Mistle Toe-rag"

I've heard of the "games" that are played
between Toe, LJA and the 'Deer
so now I'm glad I've come to enjoy
all the poets that bring us cheer...

Toe darling boy this is really funny, it brought a big grin to my face, and made me laugh out loud. Well done darling boy, you know what they say about laughter, it is always guaranteed to get you favourable attention.

Wonderful writing I love it utterly utterly. Big round of applause here

Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the eathquake wind and fire

I'll be back to enjoy this more whenever I can loosen the werk monster's grip... but even a quick read gives me smiles enough to face the battle. *S* I like this very much, sweet MistleToeRag. *S*

Missle Toerag should know
When he comes to my house
I can get rid of fleas
And even a louse!!

You really looked great
In your Santa Clause booties
And thanks loads for bringing
A sackful of cooties!!

So thank you, Kris Krinkle,
Er, Toerag, I mean
You're the buggiest Santa
That I've ever seen!!!

Walmart Diazanon....oh, you crack me up!!!!

Pre-season humor, I see. Although, the Sevin and Diazinon fit right in with this infestation of a summer we're having. Cute write!
