Santa’s Rant

You want to know what takes so long each year
or all the things which must be factored in
from circumnavigation of this sphere
to bag logistics; where do I begin?

It used to take an hour, maybe two
with just a single pit-stop for reindeer
but now my elves say thirty just won’t do
and I will have to change them out each year.

Your millions turned to billions and the greed
begins some time in August or July
when things come rolling out you want or need.
My wife just says be jolly and don’t cry.

From games and guns to clothes or brand new phones;
I’m thinking of investing in some drones.

Thank you for your Holiday entry, Larry!

Best of luck!

May the 'classic' holiday spirit be shared in your heart throughout the season!

Hahahaha Larry!

Your thoughts and mine are very similar. YES, Home Depot and Walmart had already put out aisles upon aisles of holiday 'stuff' back in September. I mean REALLY? Can't we work on Halloween first?

Anyway, I enjoyed the perspective of Santa and how he must change his thinking in this 'new age'.

DRONE OUT.

Happy holidays!

Larry and Lori...

hasn't Santa already hired Amazon as one of his subcontractors? ... and they say the drones are comin' soon!!

This is another delightful sonnet, Larry.
