I started as Santa on Saturday and so far the flu has seemed to have little affect on my little visitors...ho ho ho

Santa’s Blues (Flu’s Blues)

By: Santa Fee

 

‘Twas the first day of my new job

And I was feeling Santa-ish all right

You know I had primed and preened

All through the night

 

I had practiced my jolly old laugher

My raucous ho ho, ho ho’s

My big boots were all shined

My cheeks a nice shade of rose

 

My beard shampooed soft

For the little ones to tug

Goodness gracious I tell you

I even had my own Santa mug

 

My glasses I perched on the tip of my nose

Tightened my wide belt around my big belly

Made sure that it still jiggled nicely

Like a big bowl of jelly

 

Ringing my bell I was off to my mall Santa throne

What’s this? Tell me this cannot be true

No little ones lined up waiting to see me

God-darn that evil swine flu…

Fee, did you see the piece in the news where some Santa's were demanding they be given an H1N1 shot, I think they should. Hope you stay flu free.

Cheers,
Dan

Santa Fee with his mug,
sits in his chair all snug,
though the kids give his beard a tug,
he just smiles and gives them a hug :)

Santa Fee,

'Flu or not, you still look awesome! His eyes, how they sparkled! =] (Not just because of fever. The love you have in your great big heart.)

The best Santa I've ever seen - the ONLY Santa I know and love! Hope you feel better - there's no one I'd rather catch the 'flu from than you. =] Oink. LOL!

Difference between bird 'flu and swine 'flu? With bird 'flu, you seek TWEET ment. Swine 'flu, you need OINK ment.

Okay, okay, on that note, I'm out of here. Please don't bring me a lump of coal for that joke ... LOL! I'll stick with what I do best, writing poetry. =]

Excellent write and LOVE LOVE LOVE that piccy!

(((HUGS))) and prayer, Karla.

Rose did a great job on your suit! =]

I saw far less little Trick or Treaters out and about on Halloween night, as well; probably for the very same reason. I truly hope the swine flu doesn't ruin their (and your) Holiday Season.

if he gets a sickly child sneezing on him...

Oh, no! I hope this means YOU don't have the swine flu: if so, you must get some "oink"ment! I hope you feel better soon! Karla says (((HUGS))), love, and prayers; if she's going to catch the flu, there's no one she'd rather catch it from than you! :) Good write, Santa Fee; ain't nothin' worse than a sick Santa!
