Who knew? David has joined me in writing poetry to add to the blog. He definitely got the poetry gene (and yes, there are others closely related who also got it. ) He had to write a Christmas poem for a school assignment and after procrastinating until the night before it was due, this is what he came up with.
Christmas
by David Kindlespire
12/14/2011
Christmas time is the time of year
When a jolly old fat man goes around striking fear
He sneaks in your house when you're sleeping at night
And eats all the cookies he finds, what a fright!
He flies reindeer around the globe
And all he wears is a red bathrobe
He forces small people to make toys without flaws,
That's gotta be against the child labor laws,
But Santa is not that bad after all
He saves us many a trip to the mall
And since I've said nice things about you
I should get nice things for Christmas too!
