I've Just Got a Shock About Santa

 

Hark I hear friend Santa

Shuffling down my chim

Sor-ry to disappoint you Don

Your he is not a him

 

What?.....

 

You also say since getting here

From my date of birth

Santa's just a fantasy?

Dreamt up by those on earth?

 

Sorry Don.....

 

Now what's this thing he's not a him?

(Or him's not he, vice versa)

Think what you like in this age Don

(My poem's getting worser)

 

 

Thale?...

 

Yes Don.....

 

Is Santa just a figment of my imagination?....

 

Think what you like Don....

 

But Thale? I see him/her each year in the store with kiddies on his/her lap?....

 

I'm all confused now.....

 

I wish they hadn't gone and trodden on my belief system....

 

Not very Christmassy of them Don.......
