    Setting Fire To The Christmas Tree
    ..
    Twas the eve after Christmas, in a Jewish/Christian house
    Mamma was snoring, Poppa clicked at the left mouse
    The stockings were emptied, now Hanukkah to prepare
    "Baruch atah" did he rehearse with a Burl Ives gusty flair
    ..
    The children were in Aspen and Vail, skiing or on sleds
    While Poppa envisioned college loans owed to the Fed's
    And mamma in Lands' End, the children only in The Gap
    Three degrees for Poppa, but he still can't fold gift wrap
    ..
    In the living room did a cat stir and romp pitter-patter
    Poppa sprang from alt.politics to see what it did batter
    At Christmas ornamental did Vixen fiercely slash
    At wrappings, ribbons even gelt did she gnash
    ..
    "Stop Vixen!", "Stop cat!", "Chatula!" even "Macska!"
    A bright angel flew from the tree..."Have Peace! It is our Hanukkah!"
    ..
    Forthwith all seemingly quiet and cat nestled all snug
    In microwave heated Poppa warm spiked cider in a mug
    About the warm hearth and home a satisfied glance
    Lighted Menorah and Christmas Tree in nearness did enhance
    ..
