There has to be a valid reason
Why we only see these for one season
Speckled eggs are so yummy
We should fill up our tummy
No matter the date, I don’t want to wait!
Could this be an act of treason?

Though tough skinned on the outside
She holds her softness deep inside
The apple, on the other hand
Is only soft when he’s been pied
Too many nights out drinking
Upside down, he makes his way
Rolling around the counter top
With a bunch of nuts, he sways
She can no longer watch him
She needs to squash this party boy
There’s only one way to end it
To get back some sweeter joy
Seductively peeling her outer layer
She reveals what he’s been waiting for
Then, when he least expects it
She rolls him on the floor
Never mess with a naval gal
She’ll get even when she’s crossed
Now all that’s left, a broken stem
‘Cause the apple has been sauced

They were Santa’s naughty secret
Ones he kept from Mrs. Claus
Imagine what the elves would think
If they knew about his flaws
How Santa loved the ladies
Each place he stopped had more
Swayed and seduced, how could he!
Surely the Mrs. would be sore
If she were to find out exactly
What the jolly old man did at night
Now Santa’s on her naughty list
And she’s the one out of sight
So remember when you hear the sound
Of jingle bells in the sky
It’s not Kris Kringle in the sled
But Mrs. Claus, just swinging by
Writing Prompt – Swayed and Seduced – Day 10/31

Charlie does the moonwalk
While Lester checks the gifts
Bartholomew is wondering
What’s in the box he lifts
Seems Charlie doesn’t care much
About the presents left to wrap
He’d much rather dance around
Donned, in his stocking cap
Bart leans on his buddy
For a moment, does he pause
Where did Lester get the box?
Did he steal from Santa Claus?
It seems a shame to tattle
So he makes a deal with Les
“Give me the box, I’ll be quiet
So you won’t have to confess.”
Lester takes a moment
Then decides to take the chance
Grabs hold of Charlie’s pompom
And follows in the dance
Bart can see he’s defeated
Might as well join in the fun
Best to keep his secret
And now my tale is done

A single petal, missing
From the slim stem down below
No longer made her shapely
But she still continued to grow
A star within her center
Told her story, plain and true
She was perfectly imperfect
Twas with beauty that she grew
Writing Prompt – Perfectly Imperfect – Day 8/31
