T'was the Night......


T’was the night before Christmas, and all thru the hut
Not a smoothie was twirling and all markets were shut.
All blenders were silent, the spring water had gone dry.
There was not even island grub or left over cashew pie.
Hemp stockings were hung, our bellies were rumblin’.
Let us all manifest to stop this late night grumblin’
So I in my long johns, and they in their jammies.
Headed up to bed, dreaming of superfood phatties.
Dreams of ripe mangos and mame fill our heads
As we snuggle up tightly in our bamboo fiber beds.
Then in the jungle, there arose such a clatter
I yelled turn on the salt crystal lamp!
As I investigated the matter.
Thinking it was a crazy lost monkey, or Avocado himself
It was quite a surprise to see Santa stocking our shelf.
Sporting only board shorts, No reindeer was he draggin’
He was hot! Cruisin in his Bio-Volkswagen.
He polished off his green juice
And popped up his hat
He grabbed a bunch of hemp sacks he had stashed in the back
“No way!” I explained this simply can’t be
“Your Santa of course”, and also a glowing raw-foodie!
“sweet sister…” he said in a Santa sort of way
I need a vitamix to use, got any nut milk coming my way?
“Ill hook you up!” I said with jonsen glee
Any of those gorgeous sacks reserved perhaps for me?
Giiirl! He grinned, would I tease you that way
there is only abundance
For you on this Christmas day!
I took him inside for a blender to use
Santa, I don’t get it, raw food is your muse?!
Thanks he said as he dropped into lotus
An elf tipped me off
And the best is before us
Out of his bags he pulled out the power
Followed by Crystals, tinctures and, jit powder.
No longer am I clouded by sugar cookies or fear
I’m going to keep it raw, year after year!
All the goodies he brought with him
Were the highest and kind
He also had durian pods
I’m going to blend some, do ya mind?
Be my guest I said as I took a big wiff
“get ready!” he laughed! “For the most outrageous lift!”
He finished up the blending, and poured us each a full mug
It was powerful indeed! Then he gave us all a hug.
“later sister!” he said in a tone loud and bright
Late night power smoothies for all, and to all a good night!
I waved Santa goodbye with much enthusiasm as cruised on
He holla’ed back, “Ill see you next year just before dawn.”
I then looked into the sky, and winked at the brightest star.
This Christmas IS THE BEST EVER!!! The Best ever……. by far!
