It slithered from the toilet
and across the bathroom floor
It slithered down the hallway
and then underneath my door
It slithered into my bedroom
and right past my teddy bear
It slithered onto the blanket
and it caught me unaware
It slithered and it woke me
as I laid there in my bed
It slithered onto my pillow
then it kissed me on the head
I wondered what it could be
that slithered over my face
I hoped that it would slither off
to someone else’s place
It slithered up my nostril
and then out of my left ear
It wished me Merry Christmas
and a Slithery New Year!
No dithering done there! Btw, did it leave a trail?
