Hope Santa has a raincoat…

Poem Artwork

Or maybe instead of his sleigh,

In NJ of late he’d better have a boat,

Though he won’t need his heavy coat,

The temps here are like mid 50’s plus,

Even though it is 2am, but an umbrella would be a must…

 

Its after 2 & my home has yet to be found,

Maybe a target I should have put on the roof,

A big red one with lights perfectly round,

Poor Ruffie went to sleep early expecting a visit,

He’s been of late losing his belief, & I had to give him proof…

 

So, please, Santa, even though its wet,

Stop by & show Rufuz you are real,

Thereby he won’t worry, nor will he fret,

Damn but he made me, as well, leave you out almost a full meal…

A delightful write, Ed. Here, I been shoveling my steps and making tracks with the SUV for a good part of the morning. It is definitely a white Christmas. Love and best wishes,

Regis

Love it and if my sled weren't in the shop getting repaired I'd make a special run to Ruffie myself.

It's freezin rain up there where he is, tell Rufuz not to worry, he just passed my chimney a little late, run in with the elves, the highways up there are busy, and there a lot of bang ups, don't worru if it's a good meal he won't miss it, he'll be there!

What I want to know is this: what are you doing up at 2:00 a.m.? Good little boys are supposed to be in bed at that hour, with visions of sugarplums dancing in their heads!! LOL (It's 6:37 a.m., here.) Hope Santa greets you with all you could ever wish for: you deserve it! Merry Christmas, Ed and Rufuz.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Poor Santa! Poor you! Doesn't seem the same without snow or winter attire, does it? Here it's supposed to be sunny, with temps NEAR 70 degrees! That's CRAZY!! Something is most inherently wrong when you don't have snow or cold for Christmas! Merry Christmas anyway, Ed; hope it's the best EVER for you guys!!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

Cute write, though.....

According to Patty, he'll need a raincoat (boat?) in Kentucky, too. Well, hopefully reindeer can swim and sleighs can float :-)

Merry Christmas Ed!!!
