A Very Covid Christmas
Santa, Dear Santa, I just wrote to say
leave the gifts on the doorstep, stay six feet away.
This building's on lockdown, you can't come inside.
I asked for an exemption, believe me , I tried.
Groups of more than six, ( that's the reindeer and you)
are against regulations. Not fair , but it's true.
And there may be some fines coming your way
as you didn't self quarantine , not for two weeks , or a day.
Maybe you should stay home and binge watch T.V.
At least that way you'll remain covid-free.
It may just be best, Santa, if we give you a list
that Amazon can deliver, but just know, you'll be missed.
