Christmas  Poetry  Competition   2007

Dear Mr Claus, (or are you a Ms?)

I’d like some champagne please, with oodles of fizz,

An Xbox 360 and maybe a Wii -

I’m sure you could squeeze in a Playstation 3.

Dear Father Christmas, I’ve been oh so good.

So please, will you bring me Brad Pitt in the nude?

Or if he’s too busy I’ll take Johnny Depp,

And a couple of tix for the gig by Led Zep.

Santa, I know that you’ve much work to do;

So I’ll txt u my wish list, it’s on Facebook too.

Just fill my stocking with Gucci and Prada.

I don’t want your reindeer to work any harder.

Now listen, St Nicholas, here’s my advice

A shiny black Porsche would be very nice.

I'll Bluetooth a picture of what would be great,

A gleaming Ducati outside my front gate.

A word in your shell-like, St Nick old pal;

Buy online this year – no more queues in the mall.

I don’t heed those folk who say you don’t exist,

Just prove that you’re real and bring me my gifts!
