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…
Cheers,
Dan

This is great Fe.

sits in his chair all snug,
though the kids give his beard a tug,
he just smiles and gives them a hug :)
'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!
