Poor old Santa caught covid nineteen Doctors ordered him to quarantine Along with the reindeer Mrs Claus tested clear Santa pleaded to have the vaccine. But something strange that wasn't forseen Santas beard started turning bright green Rudolphs bright red nose too Changed to brilliant blue Not what you'd see on a Christmas scene. Mrs Claus stepped in to save the day With Google maps to show her the way And for that mammoth task She put on a face mask And hired Pegasus to pull her sleigh. Written 16th December 2020.

Well now Tom - Don't tell anyone but Mrs Claus always saves the day (smile). This is beautiful and adorable. Truly. You do wonderful work with the execution and play of the limericks. I adored the theme which is why I turned to this particular entry. I will return soon. Remain safe and please tell Mrs Claus I say hello. (smile)

I guess Mrs Clause was plan B. Santas reaction to the vaccine is worst then the covid infection. I guess he can dye his beard back to white and for Rudolph he will have to get a nose job. Be well my friend and enjoy your Christmas...

How clever to go in this hilarious direction for this work. I enjoyed reading it today. Thanks for the visit to my page. My family is planning on getting together tomorrow and we plan on eating out. I do have some fear about going out with the numbers getting worse but I am sure they will have spacing with the tables, etc. We will wear a mask to get to our table so hoping all will be well. Sara
