Christmas Peeps

twas the night before christmas i was alone in the house off in the bedroom unbuttoning my blouse while drawing the curtains i heard a big thud peered out the window to see santa donned in mud without hesitation i threw on my robe rushed across the floor then missed every step as i ran for the door outside on the lawn, there he just laid binoculars still hung on my tree it appears that old santa had been watching me i'm not sure if he was sleeping or out for the count but christmas couldn't be canceled not on my account so i ran to the rooftop and jumped in his sleigh in hopes that i could somehow save christmas day with the reindeer still laughing and i in my robe we flew off in the darkness and circled the globe so if you thought you saw santa adorned in hot pink just know that it was i and not what you think November 28, 2019
