Funny Christmas Poems: Twas the Night Before

The Classic Poem

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;
And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap,
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.

A Funny Twist

'Twas the night before Christmas, all through the place
Not a creature was stirring, not even a vase;
The children were bouncing off walls with delight,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would take flight;
And mamma in her sweatpants, and I in my cap,
Had just settled in for a long winter's nap,
When out on the lawn there arose such a noise,
I sprang from the couch like one of the boys.

Christmas Chaos

'Twas the night before Christmas, the house was a mess
Not a creature was silent, not even the pets;
The stockings were hung in a haphazard row,
With hopes that St. Nicholas soon would bestow;
The children were wired, eyes wide with glee,
While visions of loot danced round the Christmas tree;
And mamma in her robe, and I in my cap,
Had just settled down for a long winter's nap,
When out on the street there arose such a blare,
I knew in a moment chaos was there.
