The Letter to Santa

By E.Bush

 Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!


The lights are too bright, 

The music is too loud,

It’s cold every night,

As snow falls from a cloud.


Why don’t I like this?

Oh well, I suppose,

It’s supposed to bring bliss,

But I want rid of all those:


The shops with their sales,

The buyers are in a rush,

Or the retelling of tales,

As they trudge through the slush.


Christmas is a waste of money,

Everyone buys useless gifts,

Seriously, everyone acts funny,

Who would want cuffs for wrists?


In conclusion; I hate Christmas.

We should tear down every tree.

I wish it were summer so I could play discus.

I don’t care if there’s a present for me.


You see, Mr Santa Claus,

Last year I asked for a didgeridoo

However, your system must have flaws,

Since I didn’t get it, I don’t believe in you.


I know that you are a busy man,

But could you try to review your lists?

Next time you should have a good plan

I could help you, I insist!


I hope you are well,

And your reindeer too,

Thanks for being you, you are swell!

I really can’t wait for that didgeridoo.


Sincerely, Alexander.
