Jan Allison Poet Couplet

Rudolph the Brown Nosed Reindeer

Rudolph paled because his nose turned brown
He couldn’t smile so he wore a frown

Santa wiped a tear from the reindeer’s eye
He hated to see poor Rudolph cry

Santa sprinkled on some Christmas dust
The nose is now red not a dark shade of rust

So look out of your window on Christmas night
You will see Rudolph’s red nose shining bright

Maurice Yvonne December 7, 2014 at 4:00 AM Santa to the rescue, there is still the question of that motorbike. You didn't think Rudolph forgot did you?

David Meade December 6, 2014 at 5:41 PM I was just wondering how Rudolph got a brown nose? Maybe following Santa to close? I have an over active imagination. Loved the poem and you more!! Jan Allison December 6, 2014 at 6:43 PM oh that made me giggle David! Hugs Jan xxx David Meade December 6, 2014 at 5:49 PM Ah yes, very nice!! I had a dog that was a crotch smeller -- very embarrassing!! Jan Allison December 6, 2014 at 5:45 PM He was actually too close to Dancer - i was going to put that in the poem but left it to your imagination! Your comment made me smile thank you so much :-) love and hugs jan xxx
