Ebenezeer Scrooge

Ebenezeer Scrooge
Suspected subterfuge,
And his transformation seems extreme
For what was probably just a nightmarish dream!

For Andrea’s Christmas Clerihew contest

It was enough to change his way. His eyes were opened on Christmas day. A conscience of grumbling created a heart. With a smile on his face, a new life, he did start. Merry Christmas jack. Peace. :)
