[ashauler]

The original inspiration:
http://www.cigarsmokers.com/threads/...SMOKER-s-STYLE!

It is time for the 4th annual Christmas Writing contest. Here are the rules:

1. Contest begins today.

2. Open to members in good standing with a minimum of 25 posts as of today. If you don't know if you're in good standing or not, enter anyway, someone will let you know if you don't qualify.

3. You can submit as many entries as you want. Entries are to be posted in this thread.

4. Entry can be in the form of a poem, song, haiku, limerick, or just a short story, and can be serious or humorous.

5. Deadlines are CST, I don't want to have to add and subtract.

6. Entry must be themed around cigarsmokers.com and Christmas.

7. Winners will be chosen by Poll of the membership.

8. As the host, I won't be playing, but I reserve the right to litter the thread with sarcastic comments.

Deadline to post your entry = Midnight CST, December 24, 2010.

Poll starts on Monday, December 27, 2010 and runs through Monday, January 3, 2011.

The prize will be a Perdomo logo desktop humidor complete with a selection of sticks from my cooler. Some of the cigars might even be smokeable, it is, after all, Christmas.

So come on.....get writing!!

I'm dreaming of a smoking white Christmas
Just like the herfs I use to know
Where the cigar ash glistens,
and my wife finally listens
yet doesn't hear the UPS's squealing brakes in the snow

I'm dreaming of a smoking white Christmas
With every Camino Viejo Tabacos gift card I type

May the scotch make your day merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be remembered smoking padrons in your tidy whites .....

Merry Christmas yo!
Hope Santa brings good cigars.
This haiku was lame.

Don't worry, I'm just getting warmed up...

Sleigh bells ring, we ain’t listening,
too busy online, chatting bout Kirstie.
A hilarious cast,
we’re having a blast.
Hangin at cigarsmokers.com.

Newbies join, but then they don’t search,
instead post junk, and then become jerks.
We put them in check,
their egos get wrecked.
Welcome to cigarsmokers.com.

At some point we had a fishy member,
had a bunch of fake Cuban cigars.
He said “they’re not fake”
We said “yeah sure man”
Leave the circle cause you know it’s ours.

Meanwhile, in the cigars blogs,
Frank the freak, licking the frogs,
he wrote what he thought,
but he should have not,
now the FBI is watching him.

Had a crazy painter, name was Daysi,
started bad and then continued down,
made one of our member’s go goat-crazy,
now Paddy’s gone and Daysi ain’t around.

Worry not, there’ll be more fun,
some newbie, will get outdone,
we’ll laugh during chat,
at some poor asshat,
Smokin at cigarsmokers.com.

Yes, I know that “listening” and “Kirstie” don’t rhyme, but they both have the letters i, s, t, and e - so it counts.
