a happy place
I wrote this poem a few years ago and posted it somewhere.

Thought I would update and revive it, this time giving it it's own thread.

i hope you enjoy:

T’was some days before Christmas and all through the forum

People were posting like crazy with taste and decorum

The mods hung their stockings by the server with care

In hopes that St. Hubbard would actually fill them this year! :p

The members were nestled with their noses in threads,

While visions of MA danced in their heads;

Bob was working furiously on keeping things running

And wondering where he’d be getting the funding.

When out in MT there arose such a clatter,

He sprang to the computer to see what was the matter.

Away to mod forum he flew like a flash,

He couldn’t believe what he saw in a flash

That his members were happy and full of good cheer

Using appropriate smilies and discussing the year

When, what to his wondering eyes should appear,

dressed as an elf, it was Kreth and he was handing out beer :drinkbeer

Our fearless leader, is so lively and quick,

Knew the mods he had hired were quite a good pick

They would post all the warnings and lock any threads

And send all the bad guys straight to their beds.

So with pride he whistled, he shouted, and called them by name;

‘Now on, Georgia! now, Lisa on MJS and Jade Tigress!

On Terry, Andrew, and Big Shadow and Kacey
(and all the others that don’t fit into the poem!)

To the top of the forums and all through the year

Keep the content on track and the bar stocked with beer :drinky:​

With 3000 plus members to Martial Talks credit

There was much to read and a lot to edit

But tonight was different for I cannot explain

There wasn’t a troll or a smite or bad name

We were posting about peace and joy and good cheer

While eating some goodies and drinking Bob’s Beer :cheers:​

For we all felt compelled to be thankful, for all we hold dear

And wish all of mankind a peaceful new year

All of us are not fortunate to share our holiday season

With all our loved ones for what ever the reason

Take time to reflect

Time to hug and forgive

And learn from each other to love and let live

And before I end this sad little poem

May your season be merry and may you all safely get home

‘Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night.

Lisa, that is simply fantastic. Brought a smile to my face. (But that's not anything unusual for you.) :asian:
