A Christmas Nightmare Poem by David Wood

A Christmas Nightmare

Rating: 5.0


The farmer phoned this morning
With news of our bird
And it's all so depressing
The worst I have heard

The turkey died of bird flu
He wants me to know
So ‘twas sausage and bacon
And mashed potato

The little Christmas puddings
Were hard as a rock
They broke granddad's false teeth
And now he's in shock

We pulled the Christmas crackers
They were all a damp squid
Which was so darn annoying
They cost twenty quid

We sat and watched the telly
Kings speech was a bore
Granddad sat on the sofa
And started to snore

Christmas was just like last year
I just want it to end
Now we have a power cut
I'm going round the bend!
