The In-box

In these days before Christmas, I’m certain you’ll see
An email that someone has sent cheerily.
Take a look in your litter box, there you might find
A note of this season; it’s one of a kind.
It speaks how politic’lly right we now are,
Embracing all peoples from near and afar,
Offending not one with the words we may say:
“Merry Christmas” is out, and so is “Good day.”
Our holiday season must now be like theirs
Or else they might suffer from obnoxious airs.
No bobbles, no bangles, and no Christmas trees
No Rudolph, no Santa, but let me keep breeze
Or else this dumb verse won’t rhyme, as it should
And many of you will say, “That is so nice!”

I got an email yesterday that speaks of these things. Too funny!

Take a look in your litter box, there you might find - the meter is slightly off to me here (the litter box is calling kitty.gif, lol.

No bobbles, no bangles, and no Christmas trees
No Rudolph, no Santa, but let me keep breeze *good tie back to the stuffy 'airs'
Or else this dumb verse won’t rhyme, as it should
And many of you will say, “That is so nice!”

Awe shucks, you fooled us! stocking.gif
Enjoyed,
