Notes About The Poem

1st in Frosty Contest (Sponsor: Joseph May)

Judged: 26th December, 2025

The Grinch

In a wintry hollow, atop Mount Crumpit, dwelled Max and The Grinch, 
A dog and his master of mischief, whose heart measured an inch,
And beared a soul of zero dimensions, tented by a teardrop physique, 
The villainous Who who'd snuck away with Christmas to his frosty peak.

I love the Grinch story. The one made for TV. Not the silly movie later on. You chose a great theme for the contest

Thanks, Andrea. Agreed. It is a great story. Dr. Seuss' imagination was something else.
