Me and Santa

Age 5
As a child I awoke from my slumber
I arose from the couch to grab a cucumber
   Santa was eating my cookies.
   Like a baseball rookie.
I threw the cucumber and Santa fell like lumber!

Age 6
Santa returned the following year.
No presents for me was my biggest fear.
   I hid behind the couch.
   I heard Santa say "ouch."
He slipped on my marbles and fell on his rear!

Age 7
The following Christmas was a surprise to me.
I fell asleep curled up under the tree
   Santa woke me with a smile
   He said, "It's been awhile."
Then dumped Rudolph's dung on me!
