Christmas Poem

[doenut]

Let's pen a Off Topix christmas poem. Just add a verse or two and see where Santa goes with this!



It was three weeks before Christmas

And all through the North Pole

All creaters were busy

No time for a stroll



For Christmas was coming

There were chores to be done

Santa needed his elves to get busy

And produce gifts by the tonne



But the elves were naughty

They were having a ball

Listening to music and teasing the reindeer

Would they heed Santa's call....?

 

[Evil Eye]

Then Off Topix came in

And made all the elves

Work like crazy

As to not lose themselves

 

[Cinnamon]

Off Topixs are known

for having some fun.

Santa watched closely

over those barely grown.



Ho, ho, ho! Santa was giddy,

loving this best,

watching ornery children

put to the test.

Nice poems

.

 

[Rapunzel]

But some Off Topix elves

Were actually imps

Some were cheeky

And some were pimps (or wimps, that's all that rhymed, take your pick).

The naughty ones spilt

Hot chocolate on the floor

Skidded through the mess

And ran out through the door!



The pimp with the limp

Yelled to Santa 'Oy, mister!'

'For Off Topix bucks and presents

I'll sell you my sister!'



Santa was gobsmacked

And cursed his bad luck

As his elves became imps

Who were running amuk.

 

[Dennis]

The Off Topixs were working, there are tasks to be done.

Presents galore, who doesn't want one.

The gobblers, the goobers and even the Mucks

Are looking for good ways to go spend their bucks.



And here are the Off Topixs working away

Filing out orders, all for Xmas day.

And as they say Xmas aint time for tears

Us hard working Off Topixs are building the cheer!





Nice poems everyone

Santa was tempted to make that call

To get real helpers, no trouble at all

But Off Topixs have a secret you see

They can take one gift and turn them into three!



So Santa endured and went to check

The Off Topixdeer out on the deck

For they would need to pull the sleigh on Christmas eve

Around the world they had to achieve



A red nose was needed to provide the light

So the sleigh could make its way through the night

But RudolphOff Topix seemed to have run

To exotic Fiji to chase the sun...

 

[Cinnamon]

Figi was great this time of year

but Christmas Eve was drawing near!

If RudolphOff Topix doesn't come back

Santa will have to pick up the slack.



But where would he find such a deer

to guide the ride with a neon red nose?

Santa was fretting now with fear

from the tip of his nose to his plump fat toes.

 

[Evil Eye]

But then Santa found the answer

He would find some fireflies

To put on a Off Topixdeer's nose

Everyone would still get their pies!

 

[Cinnamon]

Shucks, no fireflies in the North Pole!

Santa, still fretting, Where shall I go?

His mind was racing, fast on a roll,

begging for help from friend or foe.



Well, Off Topixs are a kindly, fun-loving lot,

they gathered their pennies in a tin pot.

We'll find those fireflies! Nebulous proclaimed,

And spend all our money for Santa and fame!

 

[Rapunzel]

Oh happy little fireflies

They are never glum

How could they be unhappy

When the sun shines out their bum?



But sadly little fireflies

Though they glow so bright

The wondrous light that they produce

Is coloured purely white



I'm sorry little fireflies

Sad old Santa said

But only one colour will do for me

And that is Rudolph Red.



You see Rudolph's nose is infra-red

And it makes a good disguise

People below who see his nose

Think he's a 'plane in the night skies



And I can see the rooftops

On which to land my sleigh

That nose is multi-functional

And guides me on my way.



Well those fine Off Topixs thought and thought

Then gathered all their money

They spent it all on bottles of port

It was really kinda funny.



Because those Off Topixs had a plan

They needed all that drink

They gave it all to Santa Claus

And then, what do you think?



Santa's face turned pink as pink

His nose turned Rudolph Red

The Off Topixs picked up Santa Claus

And tied him to the sled



For he is a dear, as we all know

So he could lead the sleigh

Tied to the head reindeer

Santa would show the way!

 

[Evil Eye]

But with Santa tied to the sleigh

Who would distribute the presents?

And drink the milk and eat the cookies?

Who would feed the pheasants?

 

[Rapunzel]

All the Off Topixs big and small

Are jumping round in glee

And all shout in a single voice

It's me, it's me, it smee!



The Off Topixs are such happy folks

And such a friendly band

We'll help Santa they all say

We thought you'd understand!



We'll drink the milk and eat the cookies

We'll give pheasants to the lords

We'll deliver all the children's presents

There's lots of gifts aboard.

 

[Cinnamon]
