Our Nutcracker's fixed with a perilous gazeHe's grumpy, he's worred, he's stressed
you could say
He's shopping & wrapping & baking & spending
& running & raving & driving & grazing...
Too much!!!
He wants each of his friends to know that he cares
So he comes and he goes and he stands and he stares
At this one and that one and that one and this one
The blue one, the pink on, the red one, the right one
And he goes back and forth on this maddening track
until he drives himself nuts and he cracks
But don't you be like that...
Christmas is JOY it is Happiness & Love
IT is Peace that alights in the heart like a dove
Besides...
Your commotion is good it sends grace and a tear
Just to think there is someone who cares around here.
Know that your motions means a lots to a many
Your trinckets and troubles go far. They do. Really!
They remind us of one who was born without cradle
Long ago, far away in a poor little stable.
So think of poor Nutcracker, but
Don't be like him
Ring bells, sing and shout!
Good Tidings and Cheer
are what Christmas' about!

I wrote this to go along with the Nutcracker box that I made last year. I think I've read too many Dr. Seuss books and it starts to rub off a little. I think it sounds very Suessish too, which is a great word, by the way. Thanks. I'm glad you like it. :)
I love it. I love it! Good job.
Wow! Great poem Tif. That was so cute!
