Santa's Welfare

I've been measuring our chimney And checking on the flue. The last time I saw Santa He was too fat to get through. I wrote a note to Mrs. Santa Telling her I thought that she Should put Santa on a diet, But she hasn't answered me. I won't be leaving cookies, Diet cola should be fine To satisfy his thirst and I don't think he should dine On candy, cakes and cookies Until the job is done. I wouldn't want him to get stuck And spoil some children's fun. So if he should get to your house Before he gets to mine, Just remember fat and sugar free At his age is just fine. By: Joyce 10/17/07

Beyond being a cute write, the wit of it unfolds the artist on the contemporary thresh of the eternal consciousness ... and for this I praise it more.
