Re: Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas ALL!!! I hope Santa brings everyone what they asked for...y'all did write him and tell him what you wanted I'm sure???
Here's a little treat I found:
’Twas the night before Christmas, when all through our house, Not a creature was sleeping, not even my spouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with screws. (If you can’t find the nails, what else do you use?)
The children were restless, awake in their beds, While visions of spankings danced in their heads.
I worked in my bathrobe. My wife, in her jeans, Had gone downstairs with directions and dreams
To assemble a bike that came in small pieces With deflated tires and fenders with creases.
Soon down in the den there arose such a clatter, I sprang from my task to see what was the matter.
Away to my wife I flew like a flash; She was shuffling through cardboard; her actions were rash.
The bike on the rug by this now flustered Dad soon gave me a hint as to why she was mad.
She needed a kickstand. It had to be near. I shuffled some papers — she saw it appear!
We twisted the screws; we were lively and quick, And we soon knew assembly would be quite a trick.
Fast as eagles in flight the pieces were found, And she whistled and shouted for parts all around: “Now socket! Now pedal! Now tires! Now brakes! On handles! On kickstand! On horn! ... oh... but wait!”
In the top of the toolbox, she fumbled around; “I need two more screws!” she said with a frown.
And like all good parents determined to please When they meet with an obstacle late Christmas Eve, We shouted and yelled some complaints to each other.
There was never more frustrated father and mother!
And then, in a panic, we heard on the stairs The prancing and hopping of feet... ’bout two pairs!
I opened the door and was turning around, When kids burst from the hall with a leap and a bound.
They were dressed all in flannel, from their necks to their knees, And their nightgowns were soiled with sugar and cheese!
Excuses poured forth from each pair of lips; They stood in defiance with hands on their hips.
Their eyes were wide open, and each little child Jumped when I yelled with a voice hardly mild.
They were frightened but cute, though much bigger than elves, And we laughed when we saw them, in spite of ourselves.
A wink of the eye and a pat on the head
Soon let them both know they had nothing to dread.
They saw not a thing but went straight to their beds, And we finished the bike and put bows on the sleds.
Then wheeling the bike by the tree (out of sight), My wifee announced we should call it a night.
She sprang to our bed, to the clock gave a whistle,
As the time had flown by like a large Titan missile.
But I heard her exclaim as she turned out the light,
“Merry Christmas, my dear,
but next year NO BIKES!”
