Julio: Whoa, whoa, whoa, the poem is not about you.
[Scene: Monica and Chandler's Apartment, everyone's there; Phoebe recites the last verse of a poem to Joey. This poem is known as "The Night Before Christmas" by Clement Clarke Moore, but it seems that it's rather "Account of a visit from St. Nicholas" by Henry Livingston.]
Joey: Yeah, in a poem maybe.
Monica: Yeah, just like the one in the poem.
Monica: Anyway um, when he left he forgot to take the poem with him. Now, I am like totally dense about poetry, but I think it's pretty good all right. Check it out. (hands them the poem)
Chandler: Would you like me to write her a little poem as well?
Julio: I can write an epic poem about this lip. (grabs her lower lip)
Joey: Or... just get a card that has a poem already in it.
Phoebe: Well not exactly like the one in the poem.
Phoebe: What?! He was with her when he wrote this poem. Look, (reading) 'My vessel so empty with nothing inside. Now that I've touched you, you seem emptier still.' He thinks Monica is empty, she is the empty vase!
Monica: It was soo amazing, he is so sexy, and smart, which makes him even sexier. Oh gosh, I gotta so you this. Last night, we were fooling around and he stops to write a poem.
Chandler: Do you think you could get through a poem?
Monica: Oh, I'm so glad you guys like it. Yay! All right I gotta go to work. (tries to take the poem)
Ursula: Well, its pretty much the gist. Well, except for the poem. You read the poem, right?
MRS. GREENE: Alright, Monica dear, I'm gonna hit the road. Now I've left my 10 verbs on the table. And you be sure and send me that finished poem.
Rachel: Oh! I would love to read a poem.
Sandy: Well, her favourite flower is the camellia. From the poem...
Phoebe: Okay. Good-bye, little monkey guy. Alright, I wrote you this poem. Okay, but don't eat it 'till you get on the plane.
