The 3rd Day of "Tweet"mas - Jingle Tweets

Dashing through the streets
Had to tweet, what can I say?
Rushing through the streets
My contest is ending today!
Bells on corners ring
And I feel so bright
What fun it is to tweet and tweet
contests through the night.

Oh, Jingle tweets, jingle tweets,
Tweeting all the way,
Oh what fun it is to tweet
on Twitter every day.
Jingle tweets, jingle tweets,
Tweeting all the way,
With a little pluck
and a bit of luck
Good things might come my way.

A year or so ago
Of Twitter I'd never heard
but soon I knew it well
Now Twitter is the word.
I can wake up in the morn
and turn up on machine
It puts me in my happy place
and from it I'll never wean.

Oh, Jingle tweets, jingle tweets,
Tweeting all the way,
Oh what fun it is to tweet
on Twitter every day.
Jingle tweets, jingle tweets,
Tweeting all the way,
With a little pluck
and a bit of luck
Good things might come my way.

2nd Poem of "Tweet"mas - Let Me Tweet

(sing to the tune of Let It Snow)

Oh the weather outside is freezing
My hair could use some teasing
Warm sockies upon my feet
Let Me Tweet! Let Me Tweet! Let Me Tweet!

Rain shows no signs of stopping
Man my joints are popping
Been up so long I am beat!
Let Me Tweet! Let Me Tweet! Let Me Tweet!

When a contest is going on
I am not going out in the storm
I'll just sit at my screen and tweet
that way I know I'll be warm!

My love of Twitter's not dying
I love it - I'm not lying,
So while I sit here in my seat
Let me Tweet! Let Me Tweet! Let Me Tweet!

Twas the Tweet Before Christmas

Twas the tweet before Christmas, when all through the net
contesters were tweeting, hadn't given up yet
The coffee cups sat by laptops with care -
would not want to spill any liquid on there.

The spouses were nestled all shug in their beds,
while visions of prizes danced in contesters' heads.
My "twiend" in her pj's and I in my gown
tweeted with one hand (we had this stuff down).

When out on the web there arose such a clatter
my eyes jumped to the screen to see what was the matter.
Away to my columns my eyes flew in a flash
Scrolled down my Tweetdeck - up and down in a dash.

The moon reflected on new-fallen snow
that couldn't compete with my laptop's glow.
when what to my wondering eyes should appear
a direct message from out of the clear.

Wasn't there before - showed up so quick
I knew in a moment that I had to click!
More rapid than disco, my heartbeats they came
and I whistled and shouted, "That winner's my name!"

A Gift Card, some jewelry, some shoes, I'm a Vixen!
Come UPS, FedEx, down below Mason-Dixon!
To the top of the stairs and knock on the door!
Bring me my prizes and please bring me more!

As lines of tweets during a party do fly
when you are so lost, you just look to the sky,
You tweet and you hope that the hosts will pick you.
but everyone else is thinking that too!

And, if in a twinkling, your name does display,
all that confusion is oh so okay!
You get back to the keyboard instead of turning around
If you left for a moment, you just might lose ground.

So you tweet during the night with your socks on your feet
You tweet and try not to ever leave your seat
A bundle of prizes you're trying to win.
You try to walk away, but your head starts to spin!

Your eyes - how they twinkle! Your smile is so merry!
and winning that prize is life's sweetest cherry.
So whether you're new or longer to the show.
We keep right on tweeting - even when the Internet's slow.

The dog sits there barking, leash in his teeth
You made him your avatar, wearing a wreath.
His cute little face and his round little belly,
didn't stop you from having peanut butter and jelly.

You dressed up your kitten like a cute little elf.
I dressed up m Furbys as they sat on the shelf.
A wink of the eye and a shake of the head,
I was feeling so sleepy, thought I'd pass out dead.

Didn't say another word, but got right back to work,
If I missed another contest, I'd feel like a jerk!
Put my fingers on the keys as I wiggled my nose
and I tweeted and watched as the lines of text rose;

I needed caffeine - heard the tea kettle blow,
poured another cup of tea and got back with the flow.
Twas the tweet before Christmas , by the computer light
Happy season to all, each and every tweet night!
