I was a Father Christmas
Ho ho-ing in the store
I wanted to repeat it
Now ho ho ho no more
The jolly covid virus
Has mucked up all I’d planned
It seems to like us oldies
So this year I’ve been banned
They’re wanting only young bloods
And no more sit-on-knees
“Why are you so much thinner Santa?”
(Don’t ask this question please)

No more banter
From Santa
Maybe next year
If it don’t rain dear!

Cute poem! It’s too bad Covid has made Santa trade in his knee for Zoom.

Nice work, Don. Covdi or no Covid, I’m ALWAYS ambivalent about my Santa-hood. I thought you might like this:
