Notes About The Poem

A Bit of Black Friday Humour

RUDOLPHS DEMISE

Rudolf reindeer lost his sight in one eye
Santa said you won't be able to fly
Also said you're getting old
To a butcher he was sold 
He ended up as red nose reindeer pie...

SPEEDING SANTA

A speed trap was set up on the highway
Cops waited for a mug to come their way
A speeder appeared
Sporting a white beard
They handcuffed him and impounded his sleigh...

'DIRTY' SANTA 

An elf debts just wouldn't go away 
To raise money he stole Santa's sleigh
The bad elf went on the run
Santa shot him with his gun
Saying " go ahead punk make my day"...

POOR POLLY

The family  were waiting to be fed
But the turkey had rotted and smelt dead
They were in a rut
The shops were all shut
So they roasted their pet parrot instead...

THE GRINCH

Someone stole presents from under the tree
Cops were baffled and thought who can it be ?
The culprit was seen
Twas a man in green
The Grinch caught as he attempted to flee...

ELVES REVENGE

The elves downed tools cos they wanted more pay
Santa said" you get enough so no way
I dont need you no more
Can get toys from the store "
They got their revenge  and burned down his sleigh ...

EYE EYE

A man ordered for dessert pumkin pie 
Was choking stomach thrusts' they did apply 
Started to heave
Made other guests leave
Chef rushed over, said " you found my glass eye"...

Hi Tom, Around Johannesburg it made it a 'Black 5 day" but of course everything was becoming cheaper with every day passing. Great set of Limericks as usual.
