 | That Night Before Christmas ...  [E] Bathroom springs a leak just days before Christmas  |
| (5.0)| Hallo Marushka ! I will be reviewing your work
 Content: Aaaah! Shouldn't this poem be titled 'The Nightmare Before Christmas'?  Good Lord, I don't think I would be able to keep in good cheer if half of my home was waterlogged and reeked of toilet water.  And yet, with your poem, you tell a tale of a family that still manages to find the joy in the holidays despite the chaos that surrounds them. The fun part of this was how you're able to keep it all in rhyme, almost giving it a 'jolly' feel while reading. I mean, the whole situation is a disaster, but hysterically funny at the same time! Little quirky bits shone through, like the plumber's way of speaking: "It's a 'yuge' nightmare," the plumber exclaimed, Pointing at where to lay all the blame. (Something tells me this all happened in the New York area) I also enjoyed the thorough description of the damage done to the house (yikes!) and how the family had to adjust with all the plumbing and 'remediating' fans whirling around the place. I would pay good money to see how they navigated their way through it all without breaking a neck in the process. Overall, a very delightful piece that reminds us of what Christmas is truly all about. Thanks for sharing, and keep on writing!     My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
