’twas the Nightmare of Christmas…
When all through the place
Not a creature was stirring… no-one was awake
The lights were left on with a twinkling grace
Nobody suspected what was about to take place
One spark from a socket, with wiring astray
Turned into a flame and the fire was away
The room was engulfed in just 5 seconds flat
A pile of ashes, where a home once had sat
Surely not so quickly, I hear you all shout
I’d hear it, I’d smell it, I’d put the fire out
But that’s all it takes, no Christmas for those near
Check lights please, stay safe, and see Christmas next year.
