My Oh My - It's Christmas!

A huge thank you to Norma for this humorous holiday poem - Enjoy



Somebody spiked the eggnog,
Wonder who it could be?
Hey! I’m innocent of the prank,
Don’t you dare look at me!
Just ‘cause I’m lying on the floor,
Doesn’t mean a dog gone thing.
I’m just waiting for Santa Clause,
To see what goodies he’ll bring.

Somebody got to the Christmas goose,
And ate all of the crispy brown skin.
I think it was cunning old Rover the dog,
But no! All eyes are on me once again!
Why is it when anything happens here,
Everyone always thinks to blame me?
Just because one time a few years ago,
I took the candy from the Christmas tree!

Somebody took his cookies and milk,
Why are you looking at me like that?
I don’t even like the snack you leave,
Maybe it was eaten by that sneaky cat!
Just because I’m bloated and smiling,
Doesn’t mean I’ll stay this fat and round.
So cast your eyes at someone else,
‘Cause I’ve not gained a single pound!

Somebody told Santa that only I live here,
How very greedy some people are.
Now you know It's not my doing,
If my name is on the tag of a brand new car!
Just because I’m wearing a silly grin,
Means I’m happy that Christmas is near,
Now stop blaming me it won’t be my fault,
If I get all the wonderful gifts this year!
