Santa Postponed Christmas
This Christmas season is much too bleak
The pandemic is sending it up the creek
because the elves are sick with Carona Virus
A situation that's far from being desirous
and getting worse with every passing week
Even the reindeer are wearing a sad frown
There won't be enough toys to go all around

I wish I'd known you
But then ... maybe I DID

Politics went and moved the fun!
Ghosts, Ghouls, and Goblins please take note;
you won’t be prowling in a boat.
Kings and queens do not be dismayed,
there’ll be no rubbish to evade.
Heroes and villains hold your fights;
you’ll show off in just a few nights.
Assorted creatures, patience please,
there will be time to trick
