You're A Mean One....

While strolling through a park I had a very merry time.  

I saw birds of a feather, 

all grouped together

and some near dried reed and olive brown slime!

But, when I was done taking pictures and stuff, 

I left the boardwalk and climbed up the bluff.

As I turned the curve on the path to get there

I was startled; a creature unexpected.  'Twas quite a scare!!

He was dressed all in green, and with fingers of fur...

I wasn't really at all that sure...

 ...as he tossed his head to and fro! 

"Was he nice or grinchy, I did not know!"

Whispering quietly, I asked "Just how far from here is ol' Mount Crumpit?"

I passed close by him and then I knew it was okay...

...for I heard the sweet whistle of a hummingbird trumpet.

He said "Merry Christmas" and I was on my way!!!
