Marty Owens Poet Rhyme

Santa's New Chair

You jolly old man who's travelled all night.
       Come sit and rest awhile, I'm sure it will be alright.

You've distributed toys 
       to all those girls and boys

Now come take a seat,
       and rest your weary feet.

I'll rock you awhile and a melody sing,
       You may fall asleep while the Christmas bells ring.

And when you awake
       you can have a piece of cake.

And when you arise
       There will be a big surprise.

Yes Santa, look to the right.
       What an amazing sight.

For sitting over there,
       Is your brand new chair. 

I've been here for years,
       and there's no need for tears

Now I can take a rest,
       And still serve your guest!

Carolyn Devonshire November 23, 2009 at 9:41 PM Marty, send me some lines to add to the football poem! It's not too late; I'd like to mention more teams and didn't know which members liked football. Some of us chat about the sport from time to time. I'm at [email protected] Love, Carolyn
