Christmas Poetry Contest

I didn't eat all of them I saved some for my daughter :)

You are such a good and generous Mom. so, 2 is some....grin

LOL well I saved less than half, but she IS smaller!

Good Save there Lynnie...grin

Moon, as you know, I'm always making goodies because 1/2 of them don't turn out!

But Smiley, we will help you hide the failures....grin afterall what are friends for....grin

... such sacrifice....

IO1 ~ I was just re-reading the poems and had to share. I had a thumbelina when I was little, the one with the big knob on her back? wind her up & she squirms?

Know what my older brother used to do? Wind her up and hold her by the knob and watch her spin around. He'd hold her up high so I couldn't get her from him.

Lynnie, maybe there's room for me on that doctors couch that Gorse2 was talking about!

hahaha plenty of room, I'll move over.

Could the doc make it a sectional? From corner to couch....smile

Sorry ladies, the couch won't do you are too far gone, a padded cell maybe lol But I'll tell ya right now I'm not sharing my fries!

Hey yall! Smiley I had a Thumbelina doll too....And I had a pebbles doll that ended up real scary looking because I painted her face with my moms lip stick. Dont know why I did that.....but from then on Pebbles scared the h--- outta me. I put her in top of my closet in a box. Grin

Hiya Flowers...Hey Dixie...how y'all today?

Hi Moon, just laughing at that craze girl we call Dixie! Got frost on your snowman over there yet? It turned cold here fast.

Ok Smiley posts have slowed down on poems so make us a funny and we will have the funniest poem contest too!

Not supposed to cool down til Friday night and then High 30's...we shall see....grin

oh good! funny poem coming at ya in a bit.

Dixie, I never messed with my doll's heads. DD Ang had a doll ~ molly from 'the big comfy couch' show. She took nail polish to her face, nice rosy cheeks, eye shadow, the whole bit.

She also did that to a doll my mom made. Mom had to take it back and re-paint the face, it was so bad. Boy! was I angry!

Well I had one that was taller than me, Kept thinking she could beat me up, threw that ugly thing out lol

that's pretty scary.

Smiley my kids did the same thing to a few of their dolls. One was so bad they named her "Tattoo baby" and they were very young, I still don't know where they learned the word tattoo. they still have her, she's still got nail polish on her.

Thats that little guys name on the love boat. I love him :-)

I was neurotic, don't mess with the dolls hair.

My namesake & I made that part of the JulieClub. Can't mess with your dolls' hair.

I use to braid my dolls hair and loved to put it in a french twist lol

my kids gave some of their barbies haircuts...a couple of dolls, too.
i just had to scroll up couldn't remember which thread this was haha off topic as usual...I'll try one abouut my toppled tree.

I'll try to come up with something too by tomorrow after company leaves.

Kwanjin, love your doggie poem...how sweet.

I didn't have a thumbalina. I had Levi Garret Snuff bottle and a Prince Albert Tobacco can.

Sorry but it was a multi-pet poem. Not just pups. ^_^

Does anyone remember Chattie Kathy? Oh, and I had a Susie Smart doll. She came with a little desk and chalk board. You pulled the little string and she'd say stuff like 2 Plus 2 is 4. I can't remember what else, though. I loved that doll. LOL

Okay, I'll try to write something funny for tomorrow. :-)

Off to never never land for now.

I remember Chattie Kathy IO1. My sister gave me a pet rock years ago.

LOL Jim..guess yours had duel purposes..after you got through smokeing, drooling and spitting you could keep the cans for toys! Grin...LOL! I can just picture all of you as little ones with your dolls! I can just see us all sitting around tiny table as little ones, with our dolls having a tea party,all dressed up in our mothers clothes. Not you Jim....in mothers clothes...may have created problems later in life...Grin

Kwanjin, opps I did not read all the posts and see your post about kitty faces....we have two of those here (no doggies).

Merigold...belated birthday wishes...hope you had a grand day full of warmth and happiness.

Flowers, here is my funny poem. I wrote it in a rush, befitting with the theme of the poem. It is also based on a true story:

The Crazy Days of Christmas

The time is here, the time is now
To get ‘er done, don’t have a cow
How do we do it? Just don’t know..
We do it even in the snow

Shopping done?
Are you kidding me??
There’s only 3 things under the tree!

So much to do, no time to talk
Eyes wide open, just like a hawk
Check those ads, I spot it, there!
Drive cross town? I don’t care!

Gotta get the kid that special gift
I’ll drive right through that big snow drift
It’s on the list, I checked it twice
Nothing less will suffice

To the store I go, I gotta drive fast
Oops! That parking spot I did just pass
I’ll run right in and come back out
Of that I truly have no doubt

I’ll be all done when that is bought
My shopping trip won’t be for naught
What do you mean? You’ve none left for me?
But I hear him say on Santa’s knee

The one thing that he wanted most
Cannot be had from coast to coast?
Plan B it is, just one thing more...
Hopefully just one more store….

Mama shops and shops and shops....big GRIN Smiley

Good one Smiley, I remember those days when kids were little.

The snuff bottle and tobacco can were toys. The can was for grading out roads under the house and the bottle was my semi truck.

Wow clapping very loud! Wonerful, wonerful, wonerful!
^_^

And no that's not a misspell. Who use to say that, or am I showing my age again?☺

That would have been Mr. A-1 ana 2...Lawrence Welk....aka Mr Wonnerful.....

Smiley you nailed it again! Thats was super and we all could relate. I'll post one later, gonna do my version of the 12 days of Christmas but will give only the last day lol.
