Mistletoe and Root Beer

Having enjoyed the process of putting his Nonsense Poetry on Kindle with his last book, Paul decided to put his collection of Christmas Verse on Kindle to for some Festive Jocularity... The Kindle E-Book is Available here for Co.Uk and here For .Com.


Christmas Can Be Crazy, but is it as crazy as the Poems in this Collection of Christmas Verse?


Jokes inside of Christmas Crackers are possibly the funniest things on the planet, but are they as funny as the poetry in this volume?


Well it is for you to decide. By reading, Mistletoe and Root Beer, a collection of zany Christmas Rhymes written by Paul H. Tubb, you will be able to answer the questions posed above.


The poetry is on subjects as diverse as, an odd choice of casting for a nativity play, A Priest who does not look forward to the Christmas season, A young girl worried about Santa's Thoroughness and many other festive situations.


P.S. Although Paul loves puns, he is far to gracious to incorporate the pun, 'Kris Kindle' when referring to this Christmas based E-book.


Here are some examples of the pictures provided inside the book.

Christmassy Verse 2

The Beard that saved Christmas

Mr Turnwinter’s beard
Is exceptionally famous hair.
The beard is worshipped and beloved
By Children everywhere.
Because one year it saved Christmas,
When accidentally
Santa shaved his beard off and needed
It replaced quickly.
Santa felt naked without his beard
It distinguished him.
He couldn’t leave the North Pole
Sporting a beardless Chin.
So he sent his elves on a mission
To find a look-a-like who’ll
Lend Santa their beard and restore
The jeopardised Yule.
So they found Mr Turnwinter
Who had based his look
Upon that of St Nicholas
After reading a book.
And he was happy to oblige
St Nick’s request
And Christmas therefore was restored
And Santa went on with his quest.
So things turned out well and
It wasn’t as bad as was feared
And on the cover of every magazine now
Is Mr Turnwinter’s beard

Conclusive Proof that there is a war against Christmas

Now as some of you may or may not be aware there is an alleged war against the sacred Christian holiday of Christmas, see here and here…

I now submit undisputable proof that there is nothing alleged about it, this war is real and the creators/practitioners of other feast days are in on the whole thing…

Valentines Day, a day that, before my marriage, I always seemed more unsuccessful with the female gender than any other day… Well this feast day was created by Warriors against the 25th December being known as anything other than the 25th December…

You think I’m talking gibberish don’t you, I bet you are surmising quietly to yourself that Paul is just being ridiculous and what possible proof does he indeed have?

Well I shall tell you…

Valentines Day is an Anagram of… DENY EVIL SANTA…

Absolutely, Creators and Practitioners of this day are trying, through subliminal messages and downright nasty tactics, to get young people to turn their backs on the cuddly, nice, jolly image of St Nicholas and embrace a small cherub like creature who is armed with a dangerous weapon…

See that is indisputable and cannot be denied, unlike Santa who should never be denied…

I rest my case…
