I tell you, girl, it’s better not to pout
Some tasty treats I have for you in store
I'm Santa's helper with a member stout
Unlike poor Santa, I can give much more
I'm sure in bliss my name you'll scream and shout! 

For Andrea’s Quintain Christmas Contest
Sicilian Quintain contest written in Iambic Pentameter

Hi, Sara...thanks for the visit. You somehow always land up on the naughty ones! I thought maybe you'd have a look at my "Talking to Jesus on New Year's Eve" write. I'm not all naughty!!! ;) Hugs
