A bit of nonsense!

tallisman

The Christmas elves got frisky

Just before Xmas time

Polished off the whisky

Not to mention the wine

So on the morn of Xmas Eve

No-one turned up to load the sleigh

So Santa Claus wouldn’t be able to leave

To deliver by Xmas day

 

The union suggested it wasn’t a crime

As Christmas was a celebration

If he hadn’t built it up as a party time

There would be no inebriation

They also said that working Christmas Eve

Should count as extra pay

As well as extending annual leave

By an extra day

 

Santa was so full of fear

Though he had some empathy

Then Rudolph and his reindeer

Walked out in sympathy

As Santa couldn’t make inroads

He sold out to DHL

All the kids got barcodes

And a tax and duty bill as well

    But funny nonsense, none the less: I enjoyed it. Two nonsenses perfectly united - Santa plus your poem. Thanks T.
