Christmas Waves of Joy
Beneath the palm trees, Santa sighed, forlorn,
His sleigh stuck fast, his reindeer worn and still.
The Florida sun rose bright that Christmas morn,
A far cry from the frosty North Pole's chill.
The elves devised a clever, timely scheme:
They called on dolphins to replace the sleigh.
With flippers strong, they swam like in a dream,
And Santa laughed, "We'll save

Rudolph's Broken Leg
Santa's problem was Rudolph's crutch.
And, also, Rudolph whined way too much.
We need help pulling the sleigh tonight
Another Reindeer might fix our plight.
An animal rescue said, "we've got
three dogs, ten birds, and an ocelot."
We'll take the dogs and birds and thank you.
Okay, so what should those ten birds do?
Amazing, but they flew pretty good.
Santa said he

Last-Minute Sleigh
?? Dashing through the mall,
With a coffee in my hand,
Frantic gift-card haul,
This wasn’t what I planned!
Sales are all but gone,
Shelves are looking bare,
How’d I wait this long again?
This really isn’t fair! ??
Chorus:
Oh, last-minute sleigh,
Rushing all the way,
Why’d I procrastinate?
Now I’ll overpay!
Last-minute sleigh,
Racing through the fray,
Next year I’ll shop early—but
Not today!
?? Amazon won’t ship,
It’s cutting close

Date on a Sleigh
By moonlit skies December chills
Winter wind rides sleigh for thrills
Stars twinkle from afar silvery
Two hearts together blend shivery

Santa's Sleigh
Santa's Sleigh
A silent Moonbeam slides across the sky
Like Santa's Sleigh up-in the sky
Snowflake's softly fall upon your roof
Like Santa's Sleigh softly resting
Snowmen smiling, there eye's are glistening
Watching Santa silently entering
A sack of present's upon his back
Wrapped with love, bows and ribbons
Left below your Christmas tree
Mince pie eaten, Carrots are missing
Rudolph's eating, his nose all glowing
Sleigh

SANTAS LITTLE SKELF
Santa’s Little Skelf
Santa Clause is here again It`s almost Christmas day
But Santa has a problem he can’t sit on his sleigh.
Every time he sits down he jumps up from his seat
He`s been standing up so long he`s now got aching feet.
I think I`ll try a soft seat as he sits down on the couch
But just

Away In a Sleigh
Away in a sleigh
No gifts for today
Santa's gone on holiday
Reindeer unyoked, stray
Mr Claus found a clause
In his contract, to pause,
When boots on reindeer paws
Were threadbare without cause
So folks, its pick-up collect
No delivery to home direct
No gifts in stockings decked
Myth of fee-free delivery wrecked
Mr Claus searched high and low
Tried every courier, fast and slow
But the sticking

E- Entering church is our honor today,
I- In utter humility to bow heads and to pray.

Santas Magical Sleigh
Santa’s sleigh turned magical at midnight on the twenty-eighth.
The elves were amazed. One yelled out “Isn’t this great?”
Not sure yet, said a peppermint stick named Sourpuss Tate.
Where is the sleigh going, and does it have any toy freight?
That sleigh just raced over the hill, yelled Gingerbread Nate.
I think something fell out of Santa’s sack, maybe

Sleigh Ride
I love riding in an old-fashioned sleigh
Tightly bundled against the frosty air,
A fine snowy winter evening getaway.
The two of us snuggling giddy and gay,
Enjoying ourselves without a single care
I love riding in an old-fashioned sleigh.
Listening to harness bells jangle and sway
Occasional snorting of the dappled mare
A fine snowy winter evening getaway.
An exquisite ending to our

Sleigh Bells Jingling
snowflakes mingling
sleigh bells jingling
under rooftops sparkling with snow
visions of gifts and gingerbread
fill children's dreams, asleep in bed
hoping that Santa soon will show
visions of gifts and gingerbread
unfold on this magical night
as nine tiny reindeer in flight
fill children's dreams, asleep in bed
snowflakes mingling
visions of gifts and gingerbread
with Rudolph's red nose shining bright
fill children's dreams, asleep

Santa Uses a Sleigh
Santa uses a sleigh
A race car!
A sled!
A tambourine!
How do you use a tambourine?
He drummed out a beat.
We mean to get around
To travel
Oh, that’s easy.
He has a limousine.
We are in ready-to-punch-each-other mode now
Just then Santa flies by under a helium balloon
