Tease for PoeTree's roots by A. Paige WhiteOnce upon an almost midnight search
I looked far and wide for information
For Yuletide myth and reputation
I had much cause not to besmirch
There was a challenge upon the forum
With grandest gains for a touted prize
Christmas stars went shining in my eyes
Here's a way to dispel the boredom!
So tripping here and tripping there
On a googled cyber hunt I went
For what now it means and what then it meant
Y'all, don't do it! Please beware!
There's many pages to arrest devotion
And careless caustic cautions casting
shadows o'er a celebration everlasting
to stifle ecstatic or joyful emotion
Even though this hunt was entertaining
And I read many a "blips" and Magi thread
According to this, I am misled
and now my interest is surely waning.
I think I'll stop. I think I'm crass.
Just one of many stupid heathern freaks
That's what they say at "Balaam's Ass Speaks"
Halitosis should be expected from a speaking ass.

Well, this definitely DOES NOT qualify for the challenge on the forum for "Yuletide Poetry". Darn. And I was so hoping for decent inspiration... ggggrrrrr... guess I need to spend my birthday in other pursuits after all ... My family will be much relieved, I'm sure. That means I can start wrapping the heathern gifts I got them.
