A Snake Lover's Christmas Poem

Someone on another reptile forum shared this with me, so I thought I'd share it with you guys. Unfortunately no one really knows who the author is as far as I can tell, but it's cute.

I did not write this!

A Snake Keeper's Christmas



Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

Which isn't surprising, for all of the mice

Were stuffed in snake bellies or frozen on ice.



The vipers were brumating down in their beds

While visions of spring matings danced in their heads.

The cobras were coiled in their hide boxes deep

And in front of the fireplace, the python asleep.



When out on the lawn, there arose such a clatter

I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.

And what to my wondering eyes should appear,

But an empty sleigh, and eight frightened reindeer.



And there by the fire my python yawned wide

A red fur trimmed cap disappearing inside.

I wondered what he'd eaten, as it slid out of sight?

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good bite. 

I hate christmas but love that!!!!!!:rofl:
