Poetry Parody by For your Christmas Enjoyment

December 23, 2011


CENTURY 21 Lois Lauer Realty had a poetry parody writing contest. The familiar "Twas the Night before Christmas was rewritten to fit our perception of the week before Christmas. Here is a sample written by Denise Fennel, our Systems Manager.


Twas the week before Christmas and all thru the office, not an agent was stirring,


To the muse of the bosses.


Carol and Pat, they minded the phones, In hopes for a call to sell a new home.


The holiday voice mails had been crafted with care,

But that one lone shopper still hoped someone was there.


With Vaughn at his desk and Dave at the front,

They just settled in for a short winter's slump.

When out in the drive there arose such a clatter,

Dave ran out to see what was the matter.


A seller arrived with his docs in his hand,

"My escrow!" he cried, must close as we planned.


When what to our wondering eyes should appear,

But all the disclosures were completed and clear.


With his trusty agent right by his side,

We knew in a moment why we warranted pride.


More rapid than stenographers they finished the file.

We cheered and acknowledged and called them in style.


Now agent, now escrow and lenders and staff,

On computers and phones and all PDFs.


To the top of the pile, to the top of it all,

Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!


As the agents shook hands and said their goodbyes,

And giving a nod put this job aside.


They knew in their hearts it was mission complete,

There was no one in town who could ever compete.


But we heard them exclaim as they drove out of sight,

"Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night."


From all of us at CENTURY 21 Lois Lauer Realty, have a wonderful Christmas!!!!
