Ebeneezer Scrooge



Miser Ebeneezer dreamt on Christmas eve ,
Omen from Ghost Present...without reprieve
Oldie's ill fate declared by this  Dark Force -
Awed, Scrooge  fainted with a voice so coarse!

I see you chose the same character. Which movie did you like best? There have been so many. But the modern ones where they make him into a woman or change the theme are ones I don't care for. I hope you had a marvelous Christmas, Nette
