Dragging the Deer Out of Bed

|° °|° °|° °|° °|° °|° °|° °|° °|° °| © © © © © © © © © © Alright my Deer, time to turn in, tomorrow's Christmas Eve again! This next thing I'm about to say might sting but listen anyway - I need you at your very best and would suggest you get some rest, for I won't take up time this year trying to wake up drunken deer. Last Yule, may I remind you guys, we pulled out way behind moonrise. I've asked the Elves to close the pub, go get your plastered selves some grub, locate your stalls and stay in there and don't be late for calls to air or I will use your alternate. You snooze, you lose - that's not a threat. So, to your homes, we're done. It's late! Oh - placed on duty at your gate are Gnomes, in case you think you might let Rudy run his nose all night* |° °|° °|° °|° °|° °|° °|° °|° °|° °| © © © © © © © © © © Date: 12/10/2018 Contest: CHRISTMAS CHEER

Poor Santa! Those sottish deer deserved the lecture they received in your witty poem, Lycia. Excellent and entertaining. Congratulations on your win in Kim's contest! Best wishes, Carolyn
