Faster than the speed of
light we'll travel through
the pitch.
Around the world in
minutes, so no time
to dodge a witch
who's
flying on her broomstick,
like in the land of OZ,
or worry about winged monkeys
like that sissy lion was.
We won't go down the
chimney and leave our
presents on the hearth,
but rather on the front
porch steps is where we'll
leave our mark,
so all can smell the scent
of fall and feel the crisp
night air.
They'll look
up to the sky and know
the Great Pumpkin and I
were there.
When all the gifts are
given, he'll take me
home again.
He'll look at me with
glowing eyes and with
a crooked grin,
then off the six gray
squirrels will fly the
big orange sleigh in tow.
Back to the field from
wence they came,
third terrace, second row.
