The Creepy Christmas Creeper

The creepy Christmas creeper
lurks inside my Christmas tree
out of sight behind the lights
waiting to scare me  

He scurries through the branches
promenading as he goes
over the gleaming garland
creeping among the bows

From atop the shining star
He dangerously dangles
like a creepy ornament
hanging webs in tangles

Clinging from the candy canes
he spins his threads of torment
wraps the sweets with sticky strings
like a creepy present

He weaves all day and all night
my Christmas tree is gnarled
from the creepers creepy mesh
knotted up and snarled

Beware the Christmas creeper
for the creeper never sleeps
creeping around your Christmas tree
giving the Christmas creeps
