The Ballad of Baby Jesus (A Nonsense ABC)
Baby Jesus! He agrees:
His home-from-home is now Belize.
Baby Jesus leaves Cadiz’s
church in search of devotees.
Baby Jesus! His esprits
are captured in a cornice frieze.
Baby Jesus guarantees
good folk don’t croak from heart disease.
Baby Jesus! Ill at ease:
The Word mean ‘turd’ in Javanese.
Baby Jesus! On my knees
He leaves me with his little sneeze.
Baby Jesus’s “re, mi”s
enhance notated harmonies
in psalming contests overseas.
(He lost, despite disciples’ pleas.)
Baby Jesus makes me queas-.
y: no denying He’s the reas-
on I’ve curtailed my drinking sprees.
(I've started steeping herbal teas.)
Baby Jesus! His unease,
His vaults, His waltzes Viennese
have left Him with a dreadful wheeze.
Long gone are Baby’s “eXtacies.”
Baby Jesus, if You please:
I’d grab some long neglected Z-z-z-zs!
