I had a phonograph and it did stick		
Just at the arrival of old St. Nick
	He declared it uncouth
	And replaced with Bluetooth
Then asserted “This is my bailiwick!”...

Ole St. Nick sat on a brick
and shouted my Dick is my Dick.
They thought vulgarity.
He shouted Dick was his baby.
They exclaimed,  “His name is Patrick!”...

St. Nick took his little blue pill,
then lay there, prepared for a thrill.
He wasn’t aware
his wife wasn’t there.
The chance of  "Ho ho ho" was nil.

Santa Claus came down the chimney one night
  Where a dog was waiting, ready to bite
 So he gave the dog a bone
 And the dog left him alone
 St Nick has gifts for everyone's delight

Farmer Fred inquired over brews;
Have you heard the epic news?
It’s spreading all around the world.
Santa Claus is now wearing pearls.
If you do not act like swine;
Everything will turn out just fine.
St. Nick will cast his magic tricks;
Filling your stockings fat and thick....

The Christmas tree was brightly lit
 But the star on top someone forgot
 But that's not all they did omit
 St Nick must have been in on the plot
 Because, zilch, that is what I got

twas midnight on the night before
but instead of waiting for St Nick
they were waiting to see whose
prayer God would pick
for all were good but fell short of glory
but Christ died for our sins
you know the story
for in times of need 
we pray for  our greed
but at this time of year 
we should pray for good cheer....

The stockings where hung by the chimney with care
In hope that St. Nick would soon be there
One the greatest poems of all time
I hope one day to add one of mine
On the list with all the other great poets
I'll keep trying,  till everyone knows it
Ill find the words, ill find the rhymes
To make a memory to last all times...

One Christmas Santa’s elf helped St. Nick a LOT
Cooing ‘Hey big boy, wanna see what I got?
She returned in a Nightie
Santa gasped, “Lord a’mighty!”
“Now St. Nick’s gonna show you what SANTA’S got”...

Submitted for: Andrea’s contest and oh, by the way, presents were delivered a bit late that year due to ‘Nicky’s Quikie’...

I look at it in awe.
What could it be?
The long coveted toy
or a sweater knitted with love.
There it sits, taunting me.
I shake it, there is no sound.
It is so pretty
covered in greens and gold
topped with a large red bow.
It intrigues me.
What could fit in such a box?
But none the less
I must wait
til the morning of St. Nick....

The stars and the moon glow so bright 
Poor Santa, he lost his eyesight 
Had a bit of bad luck 
When he stepped in some muck 
With both feet, his left and his right
 
His glasses, he left on the bar 
From peeing, his zip was ajar 
Now the reindeer won't sleigh 
(Ooh)...Because Santa smells that way 
So, St. Nick went back to the bar...

A little bird heard
Then spread the word
That Isabell had lost her smile
Well I have a spare
Which I doubt you'd wanna wear
To be honest, I've used it a while
So I did the next best
Phoned in a request
To jolly old St Nick
I heard from a bird
Now I'm spreading the word
Old Santa's got just the trick.

 Merry Christmas Isabell
from Daniel and Buddy...

Christmas scintilla dressed in Holiday cheer 
Merry Christmas has become something dear
Though Santa is sprucing up his new red suit,   
its good old St. Nick that I loved, in my youth
Yuletide greetings coming from a lit computer 
Santa used to fly on a sled  and not a scooter  
I'll take an old fashioned Christmas of beauty 
over a modern Christmas, of gifts and duty ......

Tommy had loved music all his life
  And he enjoyed playing Christmas carols with his fife
 But when he came downstairs on Christmas eve
  He just couldn't believe
The present Santa was giving to  his wife

  So he hollered out to St Nick
" Hey, that's not the present I picked"
 But Santa kept saying ho ho ho
  While Rudolph waited out in the snow
 Then Tommy awoke from his dream  real quick...

With Christmas carols softly playing
By the fireplace we sing along
And snow flakes in the cold wind swirling
While winter sings  its' chilly song

The scenery turns to a blanket of white
As St. Nick rides by on his sleigh
And children behaving just right 
In hopes he comes their way

People filling up on eggnog
And kids in the snow at play
 And the flames  of the  crackling logs
Warm the heart on the eve of Christmas  day...

Randy Reindeer appeared on the scene
of a contest for St. Nick to glean
reindeer facts - like whose nose
with the most brightness glows.
Randy’s huge nose shone both red and green!

Rudolph’s rival is who St. Nick chose.
Randy Reindeer now steals all the shows.
It was from surgery
that he quite cleverly
got a battery stuck up his nose.

I can picture a reindeer all harnessed and hitched
I can understand the concept of jolly old St. Nick,
I can listen to Christmas carols playing all day long
But reports of cancelling Christmas make me sick!
Yearly some grinches delight in debunking Christmas
With upsetting stories appearing in the news on TV
But what they plan to accomplish by this deception
Muddies my reception and remains a mystery to me.

Cajun Santa was a skinny little man

He could hide in the shadow of a soda pop can

I asked Cajun Santa do you have a magic power

He said, I can fly around the world in less than an hour

He said I’ve got to be fast in and out quick

I get a little competition from Ol St. Nick

You can be the meanest little boy that ever did play

You will get a gift from me on Christmas day

 For all you boys and girls good or bad

Cajun Santa won’t leave anyone sad...

Carols chiming on the village green
Light snow adding to the atmosphere,
Bustling shoppers complete the scene
It’s easy to see the holiday is here,
With children laughing, anticipating
A midnight visit from jolly old St. Nick
In the park young folks are ice-skating,
So many activities, take your pick.
Sledding down a slope is my choice
Then, hot chocolate and a huge bonfire,
While happy carolers raise their voice
All tuckered out, I’m ready to retire.
