Once knew a fellow from Cape Cod
Strange things happened speaking quite odd
He opened his yap
His ears would flap
Took flight, landed head first on his nog

Egg NOG (Never Ostracize God.)
Should never criticize or Ostracize God
Him we should always love and laud
And not ever take advantage of
Treat like heavenly dove from above.
Everyone I know surely can afford
The love we receive from our Lord
And all that God does is dynamic
Wants you to put poem on a ceramic.
Now your poem can read everyday
And By God we won't be led astray
Should stop you from riding a horse
There in heaven on His golf course.
Some more egg NOG must drink
Instead of throwing down sink
May remain drunk in your abode
Not driving carrying a heavy load.

Tir Na Nog
I'd like to go to Tir Na Nog
And live amongst the fae
To sit atop a toadstool house
And watch them as they play
I'd like to go to Tir Na Nog
And live in forest green
To lay amongst the lush green grass
And laze away and dream
I'd like to go to Tir Na Nog
And far from humans be
To live in peace and harmony
And bathe in sunlights rays
I'd like to go to Tir Na Nog
And escape the outside world
To live with beauty all around
And leave the world behind
I'd like to go to Tir Na Nog
No place I'd rather be
Just woodlands creatures and the fae
Where happy I could be

Okay my friends I would even die for “nog”
The most amazing taste in creation
Why is it only available during the Christmas season
I'd pay big bucks for this taste sensation
Imagine sitting out on your patio in the summer
Enjoying that amazingly unique taste
“Yes I'll have another” they'd be heard to cry out
Two more cold ones coming up, due haste
Who could I write to, to make it mandatory
To provide this treat all year round
Not sure, but can someone get addicted to “nog”
Maybe over a thousand I've downed
There are things in life that make it all worthwhile
Definitely eggnog is one of those things
So you'll find me drinking buckets of the stuff
It's beverage that's fit for a king!

Little people on the hill,
Dancing 'neath the moonlight.
Bid me come with them, I will,
Run and run 'til out of sight.
Tir Na Nog, Tir Na Nog,
Under every moore and bog.
Land of the young,
Of whom we've often sung.
To a land of fairies old,
To a land of dance and song.
Where I will never 'er feel cold,
Nor the night will 'er feel long.
This is a lullaby my sister, Rebekah, and I wrote together.

Some say Egg Nog,
will warm the night,
and make you happy,
if it's spiked just right.
Maybe this Christmas,
I will give it a try,
to help rid the depression,
and keep my season bright.
