Grumpy Ana's Christmas Dream
‘Twas Christmas Eve, and grumpy Ana had
a crazy dream. She dreamed she was a tot
on Christmas! She and her sis had been bad,
so presents from their dad were not a lot!
The decorations were not on the tree.
There were no snack cans either with their treat.
Her mom made a dessert. Unhappily,
Ana screamed, "Drat such custard! I won’t eat!”
A pup appeared and Ana sighed, “O God.
I did not want a dog,” but then with awe,
she watched it getting small. She yelled, “Go dog,
and don’t come back! Was it a cat I saw?”
AHA! The dog had turned into a cat!
She woke up with her usual doom mood.
“Bursitis rub,” whined Ana, “I need that,
and just a tuna nut for Christmas food.”
