After Christmas: An After Christmas Poem

It being a new Millenium, and all, I felt a more modernistic approach to the incident concerning gifts and True Love was needed for my second poem (Christmas Poem #1 is here.). ;-D

Dedicated to an unknown Catholic writer (12 days of Christmas).

AFTER CHRISMAS

During the first minute after Christmas
My true love returned to me,
A Rodney Dangerfield in Concert DVD.

During the second minute after Christmas,
My true love returned to me,
Two pink garden gloves,
And a Rodney Dangerfield in Concert DVD.

During the third minute after Christmas,
My true love returned to me,
Three fountain pens,
Two pink garden gloves,
And a Rodney Dangerfield in Concert DVD.

During the fourth minute after Christmas,
My true love returned to me,
Four skirts for nerds,
Three fountain pens,
Two pink garden gloves,
And a Rodney Dangerfield in Concert DVD.

During the fifth minute after Christmas,
My annoyed true love returned to me,
Five indescribably ugly things,
Four skirts for nerds,
Three fountain pens,
Two pink garden gloves,
And a Rodney Dangerfield in Concert DVD.

During the sixth minute after Christmas,
My embarrassed true love returned to me,
Six books on role-playing,
Five indescribably ugly things,
Four skirts for nerds,
Three Fountain pens,
Two pink garden gloves,
And a Rodney Dangerfield in Concert DVD.

During the seventh minute after Christmas,
My confused true love returned to me,
Seven Venus Razors meant for trimming,
Six books on role playing,
Five indescribably ugly things,
Four skirts for nerds,
Three Fountain pens,
Two pink garden gloves,
And a Rodney Dangerfield in Concert DVD.

During the eighth minute after Christmas,
My flustered true love returned to me,
Eight night gowns for sleeping,
Seven Venus Razors meant for trimming,
Six books on role-playing,
Five indescribably ugly things,
Four skirts for nerds,
Three Fountain pens,
Two pink garden gloves,
And a Rodney Dangerfield in Concert DVD.

During the ninth minute after Christmas,
My horrified true love returned to me,
Nine silk panties most entrancing,
Eight night gowns for sleeping,
Seven Venus Razors meant for trimming,
Six books on role playing,
Five indescribably ugly things,
Four skirts for nerds,
Three fountain pens,
Two pink garden gloves,
And a Rodney Dangerfield in Concert DVD.

During the tenth minute after Christmas,
My shocked true love returned to me,
Ten aids for love making,
Nine silk panties most entrancing,
Eight night gowns for sleeping,
Seven Venus Razors meant for trimming,
Six books on role playing,
Five indescribably ugly things,
Four skirts for nerds,
Three fountain pens,
Two pink garden gloves,
And a Rodney Dangerfield in Concert DVD.

During the eleventh minute after Christmas,
My angry love returned to me,
Eleven condoms, and then went into hiding,

On the twelfth day after Christmas,

My ex-true love returned to me,

Twelve pleas for forgiving,

Eleven condoms and then went into hiding,
Ten aids for love making,
Nine silk panties most entrancing,
Eight night gowns for sleeping,
Seven Venus Razors meant for trimming,
Six books on role playing,
Five indescribably ugly things,
Four skirts for nerds,
Three fountain pens,
Two pink garden gloves,
And

a Rodney Dangerfield in Concert DVD
