Welcome to 714 Delaware Street! I decided to create this blog to remind myself that writing is a joy not a chore. Hopefully the same will be said about reading my writing, but I appreciate all feedback. If you'd like to share some of your writing email me and I'll be happy to post it...if I can figure out how!

Christmas Krampus

Gather round little children,
For it's time that you hear,
'Bout a little known figure,
That will strike you with fear.
Christmas isn't just about
Collecting candies and toys.
It's about learning to be,
Good little girls and little boys.
If you behave all year long,
On Christmas day you'll see,
Loads of big shiny presents,
Waiting for you under the tree.
But if you are rotten,
You'll provide a great feast,
To the Christmas Krampus,
A terrible beast!
With two sharp horns,
Curling out of his head,
And a slobbery tongue,
Long 'nough to wrap 'round your bed.
The Christmas Krampus is called
By your mom and your dad,
To eat you all up,
If you've been very bad.
So be good and be kind,
Don't lie, cheat or steal,
Or the Christmas Krampus,
Will have you for his meal!
