A CHRISTMAS POEM: GIVE SANTA A MEDAL

Dick Johnson writes:

Give Santa A Medal.

'Twas two days before Christmas.
And my gift list complete.
Save one so important,
It had to be neat.

The gift I was missing,
The one to be handy,
For the spirit of Christmas,
So good to the family.

For the jolly ol' man,
Who arrives Christmas night.
Himself good and generous.
Choose a gift that's just right!

He travels a great distance,
To bring everyone good cheer.
What kind of a present
Would Santa hold dear?

No gingerbread houses,
No frilly white blouses.
No Hansel, no Gretle.
Give Santa a medal.

No toys to construct,
No parts to assemble.
No bicycle to pedal
Give Santa a medal.

No milk, and no cookies.
By the tree and the rest.
Give Santa a medal,
He deserves just the best.

His effort rewarded,
In a box with red bow.
Give Santa a medal.
He's our Christmas He-Ro!

M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S!

--D. Wayne Johnson

A Reply

As Santa embarked with his die-struck award,
A glittering medal fit for any king’s hoard,
The reindeer grumbled at the front of the sleigh:
“Have you any idea how much these damned things weigh?”
