Santa Claus
Santa Claus
Children scream with joy
on sight of chubby, plump,
white bearded Santa
In red coat with
white collars and cuffs,
red trousers and fur cap.
With gifts in his bag
and a shaking belly,
He comes laughing,
Riding on a sleigh
driven by eight reindeers,
As Rudolph, the red nosed
drives through the night,
lands swiftly on roofs
and slides in to houses through chimneys,
Chuckles ho ho ho
and drops gifts for all,
An year's long wait ends
as wish list turns to reality,
Midnight hours ..
popping of firecrackers
Church bells ring
and Carols sing,
Celebrating birth
of Jesus Christ,
It's Christmas time !!
Like a zephyr he buzzes
gifts to well behaved
and guilty foraged,
And then visits markets,
streets, the whole of city,
To return to his home
at North Pole,
Collects request letters
and gifts throughout the year,
for next Christmas !!
