Download or read book The Peculiar Poetry Book of Funny Christmas Verse written by Patrick Winstanley and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Packed full of funny Christmas poems, parodies and nonsense verse by contemporary UK poets Max Scratchmann, Paul Curtis and Patrick Winstanley, The Peculiar Poetry Collection of Funny Christmas Verse distills the true spirit of Christmas - comic, misanthropic, dyspeptic, or sometimes just sick. The collection is presented chronologically, taking the reader in seven easy leaps from the eager anticipation of Christmas, through the fun and festivities, to the bitter aftertaste. Meet Pip, the ineffably jolly penguin who gets on everyone's tits, revel in the feminist retelling of the story of The Three Wise Men and discover the feminine hygiene product set to be a Christmas sensation. Oddly compelling and compellingly odd, you'll enjoy a roller coaster ride through the festive peaks - drinking, feasting and flirtation - and troughs - hangovers, religion and relations - in an anthology overflowing with Christmas good cheer. Perfect as a present for a hard to please relative (any relative!), a secret Santa gift for a colleague, or a small indulgence for oneself, The Peculiar Poetry Collection of Funny Christmas Verse is ribald, riotous and on occasion very rude.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christmas Treasury of Song and Verse AS once again this season of good-will and good-cheer comes round, let us leave, for a time at least, the turning of the wheels of chance. Let us permit the finer qualities in our humanity to have their play. It is not too late to be young and of the happy people. It is the time for rejoicing and thanksgiving. But, indeed, we shall not be able to help our selves. A spiritual fact is more stable and more magnetic than the everlasting hills. It will have its way. And there are few more compelling forces than the thoughts which have been enshrined in a great event. The holy day is a holiday indeed; for love itself is at play. As the midnight chimes peal forth the advent of Christmas a very host of invisible forces rise up and bear 'us on. The ghosts of thousands Of Christmases past pass before us with ap pealing benedictions. Our minds become chambers haunted with beneficent presences.
