The Polar Bear King

Polar bear king was the first Santa in Scandinavia back in the day
We never hear about him, for he had some mishaps along the way
Instead of reindeer, he traveled with Arctic bears of white.
They gobbled up the bad kids, and this did not set just right.

This was prior to Krampus, and no one knew about Santa yet.
Polar bears were happy with the Polar bear king, most of them a pet.
The ones who ate up the bad kids would never admit it of course.
But the Polar bear king ended up traveling over the world with a horse.

The horse was not equipped to fly because they did not have magic yet.
The polar bears were angry, for they thought they were his favorite pet.
So it did not work out for the Polar Bear King, and Santa was invented.
The fiasco of the eaten children should have been prevented.
