You know Dasher and Dancer
And Prancer and Vixen
Comet and Cupid
And Donner and Blitzen
But do you recall
Another reindeer
Rudolph the reindeer!
Had a nose!
And if you ever saw it
You would say nothing!
All of the other reindeer
Used to accept Rudolph completely!
They never let Rudolph
Lift anything on his own!
Then one foggy Christmas eve
Santa came to say
Rudolph you can't help!
Christmas is ruined!
Then how the other reindeer
Had unfair unexplained expectations of Rudolph!
And they cried!
Rudolph the reindeer!
You're the same as any other reindeer!
(Rudolph) I don't know why, but I'm sorry!

About this poem:
This is a parody of Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer by Elephant Larry. This is my favorite new Christmas parody song. It is from a show I used to listen to back in the 80's, the Dr. Demento Show.

2013 is at its end
days and words gone
I celebrate alone
it is quiet
quiet is good...
I light a candle.
What the New Year will bring
I do not know
only God knows
my life for Him to know
I cannot know.
Whatever I did was wrong
this I know
whoever I met to forget
I know
Everything was for love.
Love is why I'm here
love is why I believe
anything can be achieved in life
New Years most glorious light
is sweet hope
2013 is gone
dead is the year...

Snow Flakes Playing!
Snowflakes swirling merrily, happily in the snow filled air
Circling tiny dots of wonder covering up the undressed spots,
The drabness of Winter’s earthen bare
Whirling in a circle, landing not knowing where
Creating wondrous dance lands for the Fairy Queen
over which she doth realm
Her beautiful snow land, which she now calls home
Magic transformation for both you and I
Snowflakes falling happily, from the awesome snow filled sky
Dance with the snowman way unto the night
Imagine such a delightful fantasy land, such a happy sight
You with sparkling shinning icicled tiara
and he with his majestic simple broom
Such a handsome picture with you as an ice maiden snow Princess and he your snowman groom
Dance with the snowflakes before they go away
Flitter like a snowflake and have a wondrous day!
Composed by
The Iceland Poet

The new year has come
and the old year come
to a close.
What a bang it came
in with.
Did you make gaols
for this year?
Did you make resolutions?
Watch the ball drop.
Enjoy the count down.
This is a new beginning.
A clean slate is set
out in front of you.
Aim for dreams that were
once deeply buried.
May this new year bring
many adventures that will
challenge you this year.

That time will soon be right,
for some of us and maybe more,
pack that lotion ready for the flight,
for the location with Sun that we all adore,
Sitting here in miserable weather,
cold and damp makes you want to explore,
wrapped up in that eider feather,
dust off those blues lets head for the door,
Feeling the suns warmth ray,
walking across those silken sands,
looking across that beautiful bay,
if in luck maybe hold someones hands,
Dreams of such make a daydreaming day,
especially when looking at the snow and ice,
hoping your health stays together you pray,
Oh its` so cold now maybe I will go twice.

About this poem:
Feeling the cold a little, old bones so thinking of somewhere nice and warm. Some of us will already be well ahead of the planning stage and looking forward to the day of flights.

Sunday morning things are kind of slow,
sun is shining what a beautiful day,
time to get my sunday dinner on the go,
no one to interfere having my dinner my way,
Hmm the smell of Roast Lamb in the air,
vegetables all prepped and steaming too,
the cat sits and waits patiently for her share,
hate cooking for one always prefer for two,
Looking through the door at the lush green grass,
please just another day or two of dry air,
can get the mower out and cut it at last,
so quiet and peaceful be nice to share,
Plays a little music to lighten the mood,
Beautiful South some soulful tunes,
stomach is rumbling looking forward to food,
another week gone by like climbing sand dunes,
Should have really gone to church,
but time and distance has eroded my faith,
I no longer have it in me for Gods love to search,
conviction has gone for me to be at the pearly gate,

About this poem:
Another rest day bit like a holiday for most, many spend this day in praise of the Lord or with families, friends, loved ones. Many also spend the time alone with their thoughts, maybe no home, no refuge, no tangible meaning of life but we all exist, I can eat my fill but others cannot and even having faith or not life trundles on like another Sunday.

Frankenstein, Dracula, and their friend Lurch
Decided one day to go to church
They found intriguing the things they'd hear
The phrase body and blood
That really caught their ear
The blazing candles make Frankie nervous
The crucifix distracted Drac from the service
On top of that they didn't realize
It was Ash Wednesday
On to their surpise
They got the ash
They got the monster ash
The monster ash
They gave them out at mass
The monster ash
Right after Mardi Gras
The monster ash
They got the monster ash
It turned out to be a miraculous day
The three all repented and changed their ways
Dracula gave up sucking for Lent
If the Chicago Cubs did it
That would be an event
They got the ash
They got the monster ash
The monster ash
They wore them with panash
The monster ash
Lurch went back and asked for a mustache
They got the ash
They got the monster ash
Drac, you got something on your forehead
Let me get it
No, it's a smudge
Look in the mirror
No, you can't look in the mirror

About this poem:
This song is a parody of Monster Mash by Tim Cavanaugh. With Ash Wednesday starting the Easter holiday, I thought it was a funny parody.

Here goes.
A race on toes.
To a place I don’t know.
Travelling under darkness and the sun’s glow.
To a land with the taste of foreign words.
Dress myself with the color of ferns.
Throw away cares and concerns.
Soar high, dance over clouds like a rebel bird
Be a new member of a different herd.
I’ll send you a post card.
So don’t be sad!
