Christmas in Aurelia
It has been many months
Since my dad came home
To enjoy a nice Christmas
And read his little tome.
He came home from a war
That was very bad
But now that he’s home
Me and my mother are so very glad.
Maybe we could get
A fancy Christmas tree
With the Aurelian star
To show that we are free
After that we could go
And surf the waves
Of beautiful Cape Aubrey
Oh that would be my fave
When we get back home
We’ve sing away our fears
For because of our freedom
We can wish ourselves a Happy New Year.
--------
The Joy of Christmas
Dirty brown snow, which clenches to your feet
Expensive or sold out gifts, together on a list
To be picked up where all last minute shoppers meet
The air filled with the same old music, never with a twist
Hustling through the masses, last shop in sight
Passage blocked by screaming brats, standing in a line
Waiting for an old man, with his reindeer might
After the last check out, that last box finally mine
Lugging heavy bags, looking for the parking spot
Searching for the keys, on the bottom of the bag
Joining the other cars, which are there a lot
Speeding up an breaking, the drive home is a drag
But when the diner is over, presents are unveiled
Happy with their family, you open your first beer
Away with frustration and agony , to their wishes you did yield
But you know it was worth it, and will be again next year.

Santa Claus is Comin' to Town
I keep a quill in my pocket
even got a bag of loot
If your window's open, better lock it
and beware the man in the red suit
I'll sneak in while you're sleepin'
'round midnight Christmas eve
Through the shadows, I'll be creepin'
with a knife hidin' in my sleeve
My knife, I keep it sharp, you see,
it'll cut you nice and quick
No time for you to scream, you'll see,
'fore your blood runs red and thick
My quill is soft and ivory white
'til I dip it in your blood
When the kids wake up at morning's light,
bet they'll wish that they'd been good
I'll stuff their stockings 'til they bloat
'neath the tree leave presents too
And on the mantel there I'll leave a note
signed in blood from 'you know who'
Then I'll be slippin' out the window
won't be readin' the front page
'Til next year I'll be layin' low
and polishin' my blade
Just remember I'm always watchin'
and if it's you I pick
'Round your corner I'll be droppin'
I ain't your average St. Nick.
