A familiar car engine could be heard pulling into the drive
That meant naptime was over as mummy had finally arrived
Henry lifted a lazy eyelid no more effort to be made
Mabel barked and ran to the door waiting to be praised
Bags of shopping were dropped with the jingle of a bell
Mabel sniffed the bags to see if a treat could be smelled
Henry knew what was coming and pretended not to wake
For this time of year stupid pictures were attempted to take
Sure enough, with no surprise out came crazy antlers on a headband
With no permission given, on his fluffy head they were rammed
Lots of coos and encouragement and treats offered to pose
Pulled from his bed, Henry was betrayed by his greedy nose
Mabel had a fluffy hat on with reindeer ears that had been knit
Henry rolled his eyes at her eagerness for she looked a complete twit
As the camera flashed and they were pulled about he sighed
He had learnt over the years it was just easier to comply
Posing for treats was such a disgrace in his manner of thought
Mabel disagreed, sitting up straight only too happy to be bought
When it was over, they gobbled up turkey and stuffing flavoured treats
Waggy tails returned to their comfy beds content again to snooze in peace
