Tex

how are you going to enjoy christmas in texas
is it gonna snow? no
what's Santa gonna look like tracking 
accross that hot sand in his furry red suit. 
i doubt if he can even get his reigndeer 
to even go in that direction
i don't know what kind of Sants Claus 
they got down there, 
or what his current mode of transportation is,
or how they say Ho Ho Ho in spanish
does Santa have a deal with the boarder patrol
and what's he bringing back from over there? 
maids for rich people
sorry, i just cant texas Santa in the mood

This is one type of poem that I cannot write. It is one with satire. Must be my pure mind. ha ha ha. Santa must wind surf across the sand down Texas way. He will have not trouble for we have snow up to our knees here in Sask. We keep getting dumped on almost every day. Gonna be a long winter. Phyl

Do not stop encouraging your pen in this direction, for satire repeated often is always perfect ... and we poets forever search for that perfection.
