Santa and the Virus

by Betty Jo Tucker — Read all 96 poems by Betty Jo Tucker

To all the Santas out there, this poem is for you. Thanks to Pixabay for another great graphic.

December with its winter woes

gets much better when Santa goes

around the world spreading good cheer.

Will he be able to this year

or will the virus strike him down?

Don’t worry, folks, erase that frown.

To make sure he’s up to this task,

Santa’s wearing a Christmas mask!

And Santa is probably practicing social distancing by not arriving when children are awake. And I'd like to see how he pulled the distance gifting. Maybe as one of those de-materialize/rematerialize systems that enable him to position presents by GPS and then project them to a location so that he doesn't have visually go there with the reindeer and his sleigh. Andy can pick up the cookies and milk on the way back.

Star Trek hardware and software and surely arrived at the North Pole!
