There are some characters we just don't know much about. The Easter Bunny, for example-- how did that happen? How does he get around? Who assigned him this task? Etc. Etc.
Mrs. Claus (pictured here with her husband, Nick, and one of their adult children) is one of those characters. Here are some of the questions I have had about her:
-- Where did she go to college?
-- How did she meet Nick?
-- How did Nick talk her into moving to the North Pole?
-- Does she like wearing matching outfits?
-- Does she prefer Starbucks or Caribou?
-- What do Mr. and Mrs. Claus do for date night?
-- Did she give birth in a hospital?
-- What kind of car does she have?
-- Does she make any of the presents?
-- Who does her hair?
-- Are the "elves" really more accurately called "slaves?"
Anyways, there is a lot to cover here! I will go first:
We don't want to see
All she does for Santa; She's
His North Pole dancer.
Now it is your turn! Five syllables for the first line, seven for the second, and five at the end...

I remember her
ReplyDeleteShe always gave out the worst
Halloween candy.
Classic bait and switch
ReplyDeleteHe was svelte, groomed in college
I said yes, now stuck.
So sick of Christmas…
ReplyDeleteThe music, the candy, the elves!
Global warming, please!
After Osler's verse,
ReplyDeleteI can never go back to
The North Pole again.
He was her last chance.
ReplyDeleteWho else would date her? Outlandish
hats.and obsession
With the color red?
But he too liked to travel
Both had sumptuous
Bellies. She loathed cold,
Reindeer poop. Cantankerous
Elves. But when eccentric
Is your watchword,who
Else will companion
You through the maelstrom of life?
Only Claus. Dear,sweet Claus.

Santa: Ho ho ho!
Mrs. Claus, oh yeah--
ReplyDeleteShe's the original Vixen
Makes Santa's nose red.
Red dress, fur collar
ReplyDeleteshe runs the show; elves, reindeer
they answer to her
Innocent looking
ReplyDeleteMrs. Claus sips her cocoa
laced with schnapps.
Her wicked good nails
ReplyDeleteAre honed, sharp, and crimson
The fierce claws of Claus.
