Turkey, toys, boys and trouble.

Christmas day

This year she hopes that......

Granny has her nappy on
grandad doesn't fart,
uncle Tommy comes alone
and not with some old tart.
Mum lays off the vodka 'til
pudding's served and eaten,
dad doesn't get the hump
when at every game he's beaten.
Next door neighbours Fred and Maude
come fully dressed, not nude,
as last year fido bit his knob
mistaking it as food.
Little brother Bobby Ray
breaks down the closet door,
revealing that he likes the girls
but likes the boys much more.
And finally when crackers pulled
she hopes to get the toy,
( as these she's bought from Ann Summers )
as she still ain't got a boy !!

I always assume your poems will be well thought out and clever. I'm never let down. :)

[Gee]

Praise indeed, thank you

[Ken Simm.]

I will review this when I 've stopped laughing enough to see the screen. I will honest. You've met my family then?

[Gee]

I think many of us will see folk we recognise in this, perhaps not Feed and Maude, but the others yes.
Cheers Ken, hope you are well and wrapped up warm

[Davidgeo]

Ha... that made me chuckle in a wholesome way.

There is a genuine humanity to your writing that I find very endearing.

[Gee]

Thank you kindly. Like the new pic.
Hope all is well with you David

Great lively fun! You know how to go after my heart, with uninhibited rhyming ridiculousness . . . but very true to life, there are even a few of my pet peeves here, such as bad losers at board games! You really know how to pick out the really sparkling butt-kicking aspects of life that make us laugh & cry! Hope your holidays are starting out with good health & lots of love. I love your profile pic (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

[Gee]

Hi Margie, thank you. Holidays don't really start until the party season which for me is a week or so before the big day.
Thank you

We Americans are known for our excess, so of course we engage in pure gluttony starting prior to Halloween & ending sometime in mid-Jan! *wink! wink!*

A wonderful poem. I miss the days of large parties and the family. Was always entertaining. Thank you my friend for sharing the amazing poetry.

[Gee]

You are welcome my dear friend.

I think that your Christmas sounds much more exciting than mine. :)

[Gee]

Lol, I doubt it :))
Thank you Ana

[Mrudula Rani]

I know better, and I do expect
your wonderful sense of humor at all hours.
Because you are Gee,
and there is no other like you on WC !
I am glad you penned a very original and effulgent poem for the celebration!
Hope you are having a great time of the season.

[Gee]

Hi Mrudula, you'll have me blushing :)
Hope you and your folk are well. Thank you kindly for suffering me :)))

[Mrudula Rani]

All is well here. Uma abraço.

You have to wonder how this christmas dinner lark caught on so much, when anyone a mile off can see the disaster waiting to happen. Your excellent tale here reads like a documentary of what will happen, which is why I am beinh the grinch this year and not giving in to blackmail and going home,instead having the day I want instead. Its my xmas present to me. Bah humbug :)
If only everyone had your humour about it, it might be worth the free dinner. But they dont. Great write Sir.

[Gee]

Good on you :)
Thanks for Lorry, hope you are well.

Great fun Gee and Christmas Day when familes get together can certainly bring surprises. You reminded me of the good old London knees up that my Nan and Grandad would have on Christmas evening. The extended family would party, eat, drink, sing, dance, do the conga in the street and dress up. Sometimes us kids would fall asleep under the kitchen table. My Nan would put her decorations up in November and they stayed up until March. Those were the days :)) My Christmas days are far more sophisticated, but not nearly as much fun. Have a good Sunday.Gee.

Chris

[Gee]

That sounds like a Christmas day to be part of.
We always spend ours at home, ma in law, daughter, the good lady and myself ( plus the pooch) very understated.
Hope you are well Christine.
Thank you

[Chris Shaw]

All good here Gee :)
