24/12/2020 – Poem a Day Compilation
I’ve never heard them so quiet
Or seen them so well behaved
You’d think they were being rewarded
And a day of grace has them saved
It’s lucky they’re pretty good kids
Not perfect, but good just the same
They get up to such mischief
But never try to pass the blame
They’ve set out milk and cookies for Santa
Carrots and water for the reindeer
A bottle of schnapps for Mrs Claus
And for the elves, some beer
They’re tucked up in bed early
Dreaming of magical hooves on the roof
And listening for sleigh bells in the sky
Hoping to find conclusive proof
For now, they’re sound asleep but
In the morning there’ll be giggles galore
Squeals of delight and the clatter of new toys
Wrapping paper strewn across the floor
And with the house finally at rest
It’s time for me to hang up my cloak
Take a small sip of schnapps
And wish a Merry Christmas to you fine folk
