Santa's Boots - They Keep on Walkin'

By Freeway

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Santa formerly envisioned A different reindeer route this year Walkin' through World Trade Center ruins His heart pained with grief and tears. Lest we forget Santa rejuvenates His thankful heart each Christmas season Cause God remains his runnin' mate Christmas Eve--yes, that’s the reason. Heartache evolved--our people taken On that September day so clear But Santa says, “This too shall pass Because the Christmas Story’s here.” Shepherds will remain close by Keepin' watch o’er their flocks at night A reason for joy and hope as we release our catch of fright. Our jolly elf's sleigh will swiftly lead Him into many a HO, HO, HO After Santa's boots usher him first To bended knees at Ground Zero. St. Nick invariably travels via frosty altitudes with grins proclaiming, “Glory to God in the highest, Peace on earth, Goodwill toward men.” Written November 22nd, 2001 © on Nov 22 2001 09:52 AM PST   0 • 8
