Holiday Fun



A unique Christmas time for Santa Claus,
fiftieth year of journey without pause.
     All gifts he stacks in the cart,
     gets ready to soon depart,
he feels for a mishap there is no cause.

On snow-covered track Rudolph runs inspired,
chilled wind on the face, Santa feels he’s tired.
     He spots bench in sunny park,
     rests there after night’s hard work.
Soon slips into deep sleep though undesired.

Mistaking Santa’s snoring as some blast,
Rudolph thinks danger has arrived at last.
     Lets Santa snooze, darts away
     with gifts rattling in the sleigh.
Santa wakes up, along the trail runs fast.

Santa Clause quickly caught up with the sleigh - But it had taken all his breath away - He huffed and he puffed - Till red his face flushed - It helped Rudolph to guide them on their way… Beryl
