Who Is On the Rooftop

Who is in the rooftop yelling ho ho ho?
The rest of us ran to the window and saw some snow.
We went crazy, ran outside without our coats and hats.
When we came back in, grandma had thrown out some mats.

Our crazy Uncle Ted was on the roof, making lots of noise.
Hinting that he had brought some wonderful toys.
We didn’t care; it was snowing, and we could sled!
We stayed outside a long time, irritating our Uncle Ted.

We used to love seeing which daddy or uncle would have to wear the Santa suit.

I can understand why Uncle Ted was irritated...being stuck on the roof all that time.

It was actually Uncle Bill, but I wanted to rhyme with eds not ills.
