Santa Might Be Late.

 

The children are waiting in happy expectation.

Season of present giving once again is here.

Is it the present I want is the main question.

They might have to wait a bit longer this year.

 

With all the wine and sherry consumed last year.

Santa is still feeling the effects in his head.

He is not feeling in the mood for all that cheer.

Now he is really struggling to get out of bed.

 

All those mince pies have increased his waistband.

His trousers and top have become way too tight.

It looks like a potato sack and not a jolly man.

Even the reindeer think he's not a pretty sight.

 

Reindeer have prepared to carry the extra weight.

They will not be able to land on rooftops anymore.

With all that extra weight the roof would surely break.

And the reindeer and Santa would crash to the floor.

 

If the jolly man eventually makes it to your home.

Entrance by the chimney is out of the question.

Can you leave a window open in the backroom.

Where he can leave the present’s for inspection.

 

Please no alcohol or mince pies as before.

Santa is going on a health kick for the new year.

His waist and sore head just can't take anymore.

Just carrots and juice for Santa and the reindeer.
