My husband made it clear he didn't want clothes for Christmas, nor tools, or anything else I suggested. I considered a ride in a hot air balloon out of desperation, but Brunhilda suggested I would likely have to go with him and that would not be good for her, or me.
So we got a little crazy this year.
My husband will have to solve the mystery contained within a giant red stocking to claim his Christmas gift. I suspect he is going to be blown away. Especially when he learns there is no return policy...
I will reveal his gift, and his reaction after Christmas! Stay tuned.
Christmas 2016
Is all about a theme
So in order to claim
Your gift of acclaim
there is symbolic magic
behind each selected gadget
Now go solve this silly stunt
You must get busy now and hunt
your brain must undo each and every clue
contained inside a stocking, not blue.
So consider the repeating theme
behind this jolly good scheme--
to decipher the unrelated cream.
you'll need to clear a mental block
to solve what's hidden within the giant red sock
Now hurry up, and beat the clock,
and think outside the boxie
to claim your very special Christmas moxie
Read between the clues
'cuz you ain't no fool...
Now get along and find
Your rhythm and blue...
Your gift isn't so much a crock
but I hope you think it flippin' rocks!
Merry Christmas!
All my love.

Author Notes
Brunhilda, for those of you new to my writing, is my snarky inner voice. She's a bit of a crank.
