GEEZER ON THE ROOF

Folder: 
Humor

And there came such a clatter.

The terror made my teeth chatter.

Was it something evil that comes.

To break in to my home.



Down the stairs and out the door I did run,

But not before I got my gun.

“HEY YOU UP THERE!” I was heard to shout,

“JUST WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU ABOUT?”



“SHHH!!!” He said, “I am delivering the toys I’ve got.”



“WELL GET OFF MY ROOF IF YOU DON”T WANT TO GET SHOT”

“Just how in the heck did you get up there anyway?”

“If you were dumb enough to get yourself up there, I oughta let you stay.”



“Come on down here, I am warning you

My wife is calling the cops, in jail you can stew.”

“What do you mean you don’t give a hoot?

Get your fat tush down here or I swear I will shoot.”



“MABEL, hurry up and bring some more ammunition,

That old geezer’s up there with eight head of venison.

“NO, I don’t know how he got up there,

And to be honest, I just don’t care.



I do know he is up there with enough meat,

To feed our family for several weeks”



Hey wait you crazy old nut

You can't just run them deer all over my roof then cut.”



“Merry Christmas to All”, I heard him to say,

As he and his reindeer began to fade away.

By this time I was really hot,

So I took aim and took a shot.



To my surprise all I hit,

Was the outhouse where grandma was taking a sit.

Needless to say, I never heard the end of it,

And to this day I dare not go to the outhouse to sit.

Merry Christmas to all and a blessed New Year.
