You mean you haven't heard
How Ruldoph's nose got red
Well let me tell the story
While I get ready for bed
The way I heard it Ruddy was slow
He started to run and wouldn't you know
He ran into a large red pole
His nose was so swollen it started to glow
Well Santa packed his nose in ice
And had Ruddy lie down
The swelling seemed to go away
But the redness brought Ruddy a frown
And to this day Rudolph's nose is red
It still kept it's shiney glow
Now he leads Santa's sleigh
As they fly out of the North Pole
Now don't let anyone tell you
That this story isn't true
Why else would Rudolph's nose be red
After all he's a reindeer through and through

Hi mac, thank you for reading my poem and commenting on it. So glad you enjoyed reading it. Do you have any little ones to read it to? I can remember when my nieces and nephews were little. I used to call them up and use a high squeaky voice and pretend to be an elf or Rudolph.
