Santa Came To My House
Santa came to my house,
he was quiet as a church mouse,
cookies placed upon a plate,
all frosted and tasty as he ate,
he chug-a-lugged the cocoa drink,
making his mustache turn dark as a mink,
after a belch or two he pulled out an enormous box,
tugging on something shiny and red looking sleek like a fox,
it had two wheels, a horn of its own and fenders just my size,
this was the bike of my dreams and considered a prize,
his large hand squeezed the horn and made it toot,
laughing to himself he got on the bike, a fat and jolly old coot,
he was having too much fun on my brand new bike,
I ran downstairs and yelled at him to take a hike,
Santa stared at me and pulled on his curly white beard,
he was at the house real as life and suddenly disappeared,
I looked ll over and realized I might have hurt his pride,
but he left me with a shiny new two-wheel bike to ride.
