MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL THE MOM`S
T'was the night before Christmas,
when all thur the abode,
only one creature was stirring
and she was cleaning the commode.
The children were finally sleeping,
all snug in their beds
while visions of Nintendo 64 and Barbie
flipped through their heads.
The dad was snoring
in front of the T.V.
with a half-constructed bicycle
propped on his knee.
So only the mom heard
the reindeer hooves clatter
which made her sigh,
"now what is the matter?"
With toilet bowl brush
still in her hand,
she descended the stairs
and saw the old man.
He was covered with ashes & soot
which fell with a shrug,
:Oh great" muttered the mom
"now I have to clean the rug"
Ho, ho, ho, cried Santa
"i;m glad you;re awake.
Your gift was especially
difficult to make."
"Thanks Santa but
all I want is time alone"
"Exactly" he chuckled
"So I`ve made you a clone"
A clone? she muttered
" what good is that?"
Run along Santa
I've no time for chit chat.
Then out walked the clone
The mothers twin,
same hair, same eyes
same double chin.
"She;ll cook, she;ll dust,
she`ll mop every mess,
You'll relax take it easy,
watch The Young & Restless.
"Fantastic` the mom cheered.
"my dream has come true.
I'll read, I'll shop,
I`ll sleep a night through.
From the room above.
the younger feet did fret.
Mommy come quickly
I`m scared and I`m wet.
The clone replied
I'm coming sweetheart.
Hey the mom smiled
"she sure knows her part.
The clone changed the small one
and hummed her a tune
as she bundled the child
in a blanket concoon.
"You're the best mommy ever
I really love you."
The clone smiled a sigh.
"And I Love you too."
The mom frowned and said
"Sorry Santa no deal.
That;s my childs LOVE
she is trying to steal.
Smiling wisely Santa said
"To me, it is clear.
only one loving mother
is needed here.
The mom kissed her child,
and tucked her in bed.
Thank you Santa
for clearing my head.
I sometimes forget
it wont be very long,
when they'll be too old
for my cradle and song.
The clock on the mantle
began to chime,
Santa whispered to the clone.
"It works everytime."
With the clone by his side
Santa said "Goodnight
MERRY CHRISTMAS DEAR MOM
YOU WILL BE ALRIGHT".
