Little Bit Naughty-Little Bit Nice

Garish and gaudy, a little bit nice, Mrs. Claus’ pajamas on Christmas Eve. Little bit naughty with sugar plum spice. Garish and gaudy, a little bit nice, Santa’s ho ho ho sleigh preparing to leave. Those wayward reindeers, he cattle calls thrice. Little bit naughty with sugar plum spice, snacking on the pines — those peppermint thieves, sticky antlers treading holiday ice. Garish and gaudy, a little bit nice — smart boxes and bows make children believe and grateful parents are good with the price. Little bit naughty with sugar plum spice. A mischievous elf off the shelf named Steve is pilfering cookies — they’re Santa’s vice. One chill boss in a sled would not suffice — the crazy entourage of Christmas Eve. Garish and gaudy, a little bit nice, Little bit naughty with sugar plum spice. 12/3/2020 Deck The Halls Poetry Contest Sponsor:Joseph May Checked with rhymezone.com

Kim this is a beautiful poem, I'm certain Joseph will love it - I haven't been feeling the magic of Christmas so far this year, but your poem has put me on the right path! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Hi Kim, This is a good entry for the contest. I enjoyed the subtle reference to Santa’s list. At least that my take on it. Excellent job. Best wishes in the contest:-) Alexis
