Santa Needs More Zoom

After last year slow night ride~after all the millions of miles,
Santa's sled needed a check-up with smiles.
Last year his sled went way too slow,
it needed a ton of power with some more go~go.
He wants to make sure all the good girls~boys,
would get all of their many deserving toys.
His mechanic worked many hours then said~take it for a ride,
Santa whizzed through the sky then came back and cried.
His sled now had power with plenty of Zoom,
coming out the back of this sled was a huge fiery plume.
Santa had his jolly big laugh,
a million thanks to you and to your staff.
