Thank You Santa

Thank You Santa

Just a little note,
I know you’ve had a hectic night
But next year dearest Mr Claus,
please try to get it right

Chocolates you brought me
were the first of all my shocks
Ten minutes after opening,
there was just an empty box

Each exquisite confection
slipped quickly passed my lips
Praying by the new year,
they’ve not settled on my hips

Those beautifully wrapped bath bombs,
Father Christmas I’m not bitchin’
Brought me out in such a rash,
believe me I’m still itchin’

Diamond jewellery always brought,
a twinkle to my eye
But sadly you chose glass,
and I really want to cry

Finally darling Santa,
I really must insist,
Follow my suggestions,
at least look through my list

I really am a good girl,
don’t mean to be a pest
But what’s the use of frillies……
when you need a thermal vest
