[NightShade]

---

Icy cold air ripped thru the town as winter laid down her white gown.
I sat in my chair and wondered this night,
What I might do to bring happiness to those of the light.

So I perchance called forth my fat bird,
His wings shiny black his eyes full of Mirth,
I bade him a task with nary a word.
Hasten now to the Cities Mimus, and show me thy worth.

This Toymaker had a delightful item to share,
She had worked night and day with tender loving care.
The idea had come while she slaughtered a bear,
That all children should have this beautiful toy if they dare.

Now everyone knows the toymaker is full of tricks,
To her clan of the Ravnos this is how they get their kicks.
Something about this bear is special indeed,
Attached to its neck is a note you might read:

Seasons greetings to you,
Children far and near
Hold me close and shed not a tear,
Wondrous things I can do...

I can sing, I can dance in your mind, I will play,
I will keep you entertained all night and day,
Like a fervent love I will become to you,
Wash all your cares away, and beg you to stay...

Who needs to eat, who needs to sleep,
when fun is to be had, with nary a peep.
*************************************************************
And so this joy in the toyshop you'll find,
Carry it home for the presents to young kind.
Let them laugh let them play
Let them tary away the day
Wanting nothing or no one but my special toy,
Bringing my obsession to each girl and boy.
Mimus delivered the toys as she bade,
Slipping them in, next to teddybears of Kin.


Was your toy special this year?
Only those who hold it close will know its cheer....
