November 17, 2024, placed 2nd in Tania Kitchin's Holiday Limericks Contest

    *****************************************************************************

A Needed Nudge from a Glum Ghost ‘Twas the day before Christmas last year. I was filled with sweet holiday cheer. getting ready to bake pumpkin pies, a rum cake, and a turkey--when who should appear? A fat man in a reindeer-drawn sleigh packed with toys for all kiddies? No way! An accusing glum ghost said, “You’re gonna be toast. You lack aunts’ gifts for this special day!” When I realized what I had done, it was late. I was under the gun. I dashed off to the mall. CLOSED! But I didn’t squall? I made each aunt a huge honey bun.
