Christmas Out On Route 33

Christmas Out On Route Thirty-three
By J S Fox

Well, well, well, now whatever did I just see,
Chuggin' along out on old Route Thirty-three?
A Panda Bear in a Honda - could it be?
And he was pushing a big, old, blue RV.

His paws on the steering wheel seemed out of place,
As did the fuzzy smile on his fuzzy face,
Beneath his Santa hat, with a holly sprig,
Puttin' along, pushing that RV so big.

I'd passed country mailboxes with wreaths bedecked,
That's the seasonal joy I'd come to expect,
Not a Panda with a red bow 'round his neck,
Helping a fellow traveler on his trek.

When I passed him by, I knew then what I saw;
A rolling prank by a gray-haired grand-pa-pa.
That Panda's car wasn't pushing, no, no, no,
His Honda was just a vehicle in tow !

I sent this bit of doggerel to their site because I liked the pun
that the Schaubert family made of their name!
