7 Funny Christmas Poems

I DID not know she'd take it so,

   Or else I'd never dared;

Although the bliss was worth the blow,

I did not know she'd take it so.

She stood beneath the mistletoe

So long I thought she cared;

I did not know she'd take it so,

Or else I'd never dared.

I met a little Elf-man once,

Down where the lillies blow.

I asked him why he was so small,

And why he didn't grow.

He slightly frowned, and with his eye

He looked me through and through.

"I'm quite as big for me," said he,

"As you are big for you."

Ok.

So I pretend to believe

in Santa Clause you see.

The more I pretend,

the more I pretend

the more gifts there are for me.

Grandma's such an easy one.

She asks,

"Have you been good all year,

so Santa wil come?"

With teeth held tight

and fingers crossed

behind my back.

I lie,

like so many a kid must.

"Yeah I've been,

I've been really good,

truly good."

So I can get even more stuff.

I don't see my daddy too much,

But when, and if, I do,

I don't pretend to beleive in Santa Claus.

'Cause if my dad happens to come by,

Santa has already

made my wish come true.

Peppermint oatmeal cookies,

Chocolate Santa Clause,

Hot apple cider,

Assorted popcorn in a tin.

How many candy canes

Will it take,

To give me a tummy ache again?

It's 10 below here in Michigan,

I need to be on a tropical island.

Our heater is busted,

It kicks, then it's stuck.

I won't get disgusted.

This holiday sucks.
