Mrs. Santa" by Rowena Califf

VINTAGE VERSE: "Mrs. Santa" by Rowena Califf from the IDEALS Christmas Magazine 1966 Old Santa is jolly, (Now this much is true). It's never been rumored That he has been blue. I like dear old Santa, But this makes me pause... How could the man manage Without Mrs. Claus? She looks for his glasses While they're on his head. She packs up the presents While he goes to bed. He can't find his list, He can't find his pack, And often it's fastened Secure on his back. If the dolls should get restless And frolic a bit, If one of them whimpers Or one should get hit, She'd rush to it quickly With kindness and charm, She'd fix up its head, Its foot or its arm. His reindeer she pampers With sugar and spice. Oh, there is no doubt Mrs. Santa is nice. When Christmastime comes With its snow and its holly, It it weren't for her, He just couldn't be jolly. ~*~Kaleb's MamaMimi~*~
