Ho Ho Ho Ouch

Santa went down a chimney in Twin Creeks
Now sadly he can't sit down for two weeks 
Because what he didn't know
Was the embers were aglow
Giving him third degree burns on both cheeks.

Sunburn on both cheeks is sore enough Tom, but sitting on hot embers is much too painful to contemplate, great one for the contest, it’s hotting up nicely, cheers David
