Decorations This Holiday

Buy rum and eggnog
Buy the decorations
Decorations to put up
Decorations to light up
Up **** creek
Up on the roof
Rooftop Santa
Rooftop sleigh
Sleigh bells ring
Sleigh and reindeer
Reindeer eat
Reindeer crap
Crap to shovel
Crap to do
Do not drink
Do not fall
Fall off the wagon
Fall down the chimney
Chimney ashes 
Chimney soot
Soot on face
Soot on hands
Hands me a towel
Hands me drinks
Drinks too much
Drinks my lunch
Lunch is served
Lunch of cookies
Cookies crumble
Cookies need milk
Milk the reindeer
Milk the job
Job is a pain
Job for a holiday
Holiday gift
Holiday wish
Wish in one hand
Wish away the day
Day is flying
Day of reckon
Reckon I will have another
Reckon I am drunk
Drunk on Christmas
Drunk on love
Love hurts
Love this holiday
Holiday eggnog
Holiday cheers
Cheers...
Eggnog...

Took a while, but at last I managed to find a poem which I had missed, Rhoda! Have been entertained by this Blitz:) Being drunk on Christmas and love makes a good combination for this time of year! Your witty pen has been at it again:) ~ Warm regards // paul

Lol. Thanks, Dear. Haven't entered the contest yet as it requires an attached audio read. I'm not sure my readers are quite ready for that just yet. Ha!

Nicely done, Rhoda, your blitz flowed very smoothly from beginning to end. When I saw the format I didn't even attempt to write one! Best of luck in the contest. John

The blitz is something else! Putting the words together required much erasing and the extra requirement for the title was a bit maddening, but hey, I did it. Once. Lol. Thank you for your wonderful comment

Thank you, Arturo. Difficult form but very challenging. It was fun but I think I'll call it "one and done". Lol

Thank you very much, Eve. I had never written one until I saw the contest and had to try it. Quite difficult and it very well may be my first and last attempt. Lol. Thank you for your encouragement and kindness.
