Merry Christmas from our house to yours!
Twas the Night
By L. Daniel Quinn
Twas the night before Christmas and poor Clement Moore
Had his poem being copied by many a bore
His "Night Before Christmas" is perfect in rhyme
His rhythm and cadence are wonderfully fine.
But then come the wise guys, with Internet cool
Who use Clement's rhyme as sort of a tool
They pick up the style from this poem of "that
night"
And they hitch up their sled to whatever's their gripe.
Now I'm not even saying that there's something not right
By using Moore's poem to carry a fight.
I guess my complaint is not in their chore
But the number of times they steal from Clem Moore.
So I say to you all as I close down this gripe
"Merry Christmas to All, and to All a Good Night!"
