I wrote this poem for a guest blog but I thought I'd share it here as it's appropriate to the season!
Merry Christmas everyone!
Creepfest
Christmas Eve, I’m woken by the sound of moans,
And in the distance comes the rattle of bones.
Outside I come to stand and stare,
For what monstrosity should I find there?
Not bells but strung skulls are what I hear,
The elves who didn’t work so hard this year.
The reindeer snort, huffing hot air in plumes,
Eyes glow red as they paw with cloven hooves.
Santa’s not fat or jolly – those were lies,
He’s a skeleton with black holes as eyes.
Nightmares in his sack contain little cheer,
He’s here to deliver Creepfest this year.
Thanks Rebecca! Merry Christmas to you too! I'm looking forward to what next year brings!!!
ReplyDeleteLoved that poem!! Awesome, really! It was a great creepfest and I found many incredible blogs that I'll keep following around. I hope 2012 turns out to be your best year to date, and merry creepfest!
