The Krampus Poem

More about The Krampus Poem

In the winter's chill, on a moonless night,
Comes a fearsome beast, with teeth so white.
A creature dark, with horns that curl,
A legend known as the Krampus, a mythic whirl.
With chains that rattle, and bells that clang,
The Krampus stalks, a warning to hang.
For naughty children, with deeds amiss,
The Krampus comes, a punishment's kiss.
His eyes burn red, with fiery rage,
A creature fierce, with a devilish stage.
His claws are sharp, his hooves are strong,
The Krampus' wrath, a force so wrong.
He punishes the wicked, the misbehaved,
A creature feared, yet strangely craved.
He whips with birch, he drags with chain,
The Krampus' justice, a dark refrain.
So heed the tale, of the Krampus' might,
A being feared, with powers so bright.
Beware the winter's night, so cold,
For the Krampus lurks, a legend bold.
