The Cry of the Reindeer
All this is mainly about Christmas Eve,
(And it's all true, so I'm led to believe.)
When the cry of the Reindeer may be heard overhead,
Providing you lie quietly in your cosy bed.
Some reindeer are critics and with good reason too,
So they grumble a bit, but still see their job through.
They find Post Codes to be completely illogical;
As a guide to locations, they are diabolical.
Flight paths currently, are selected with care,
In case the sleigh is RADAR detected and causes a scare.
And street lights in general are so glaringly bright,
It's not easy to see where to land in the night.
They also think chimneys now are too small,
And some houses don't have a chimney at all.
But no house with children is ever excluded,
Whether on an estate or very secluded.
Toys, (batteries included) are often bulky,
Though a Clause in their contract, forbids them being sulky.
So you see it's not easy being part of a team,
Which some people think of as 'only a dream'.
