Granted it is not strict Iambic pentameter (not to mention my pronunciation/syllable splitting might be a bit questionable) and Vulpes Abnocto one upped me but I figured if Shakespeare could mix it up a bit so can I.

FAST: It seems we're saying the same word differently.

I-AM-bic pen-TAM-e-ter. (US pronunciation)

But we'll gladly give you poetic license.

Hmm, I wouldn't count "Iam" or "eter" as one syllable. They're two each.
But I guess it dun matter really.

It's Christmas Time.
I Gave Yuko A Teddy Bear.
As Time Passes On.

(Pretty self explanatory, still playing P3P.) (I separated the conjunction in the word it's, so "It is.")
