- A Fake Santa Claus -


Santa Claus so creepy and weird
Neon pink bathrobe, mask cracked and yellowed beard
On his left arm my dad`s clock, so strange - we feared
Mom just smile and laugh, dad in the bathroom - afterwards he reappeared

Very cute, and so true, Anne Lise. The way parents try to keep kids believing! And, of course, the kids are really smart and kind of play along. Great memory. Congratulations on your win. Hugs, Sandra
