Twas the night before Christmas, when all through SRO
Not a creature was stirring, not even a Dow Geneto.
The stockings were hung in Hotan with care,
In hopes that GMs would place SoSun in there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of nachals danced in their heads.
And mamma in her garment suit, and I in my armour,
Were planning a boxing day trip to Hotan Harbour.
When out in Karakoram there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
I ran to the stables and purchased a horse,
And rode past the mujigis and the botters of course.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to penons below.
When, what to my wondering eyes should see,
I thought it was Isytaru and 8 elite yeti.
But I looked a little closer with my telescope pen,
I knew in a moment it must be a GM.
I know thats an awful rhyme.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!
"Now Rudoph! now, Rudoph! now, Rudoph and Rudoph!
On, Rudoph! On, Rudoph! on, on Rudoph and Rudoph!
To the top of the palace! to the guild storage man!
Now dash away! Dash away! Dash as fast as you can!"
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.
So up to the Hotan-top the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of Event Goodies, and the GM too.
And then, in a twinkling, I heard at the top
Such a commotion like he was robbing a shop.
As I rode to the north gate,
I saw the GM on the bridge, he was going to see me, oh such fate!
He was dressed all 9th degree Armour
And his weapon was sharp and could cut like a barber.
A bundle of gifts he had in his storage,
I looked so shocked, was there crack in my porridge?
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk.
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
He created a circle, a shining purple it arose!
He sprang to his sleigh, to his Rudophs gave a shout,
And away they all went like an angered earth gho*cough*st.
coughing makes shout rhyme with earth ghost
But I heard him exclaim, ‘ere he disappeared out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"
I had to take out 3 verses coz i was running out of silkroad related rhymes, as you can see.
