Santa Claus was running late-
For he had to catch up on some
old Christmas movies, that he
hadn’t seen, as of late.
.
First there was “The Magic Christmas Tree”-
Made in 1964, where there were three wishes to be.
.
And, in 1941, “The Night Before Christmas”-
Where many battles between Tom and Jerry,
they did merrily amass.
.
Next came “Scrooge”, so many versions there
came to be-
One made in 1935, one made in 1951, and
a musical in 1970.
,
“Prancer” made in 1989-
Where a girl nurses a reindeer, and makes
him well and fine.
.
“Twas the Night Before Christmas” had
to be seen-
An oldie, made back in 1914.
.
“Miracle on 34th Street, Santa knew well-
For back in 1947, he sat and watched it
for a spell.
.
Santa had seen “A Christmas Carol” made in
1938, so many times through the years-
First, it brought sadness, then it brought
cheers.
.
Santa knew that he was on a schedule,
but, to see a few more-
So many Christmas movies had been
made, it was hard for him to get out the door.
.
“Elf” in 2003, especially made Santa laugh-
As a matter of fact, it tickled his whole
toy making staff.
.
In 1990, “Home Alone” Santa could remember
when-
So much action was performed by that little Kevin.
.
“How the Grinch stole Christmas” in 1966-
Was a favorite for the kids, and one of Santa’s
special picks.
.
Another movie that Santa had to watch and address-
Was that magical one, 2004’s “The Polar Express”.
.
Time was running out, it was about time to go-
But, just one more for Santa, from a long time ago.
.
“It’s A Wonderful Life” in 1946, starring that
George Bailey-
Santa always tried, but, at the end, there were always
so many tears of joy, to see.
.
After wiping his eyes, he set out to ready the reindeer-
To set out on Christmas Eve, with the sky so bright
and clear.
.
Santa Claus was running late-
For he had to catch up on some
old Christmas movies, that he
hadn’t seen, as of late.

Every year I like to get my Christmas song singing done-
But it’s so hard to figure out which is my favorite one.
.
Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer-
Helped Santa to see clear.
.
Jingle Bell Rock-
The children certainly do watch the Christmas Eve clock.
.
It’s Beginning to look a lot like Christmas-
Just as it has in Christmas past.
.
Do You Hear What I Hear?
I think that is Santa, on the roof, and his reindeer.
.
All I Want For Christmas is My Two Front Teeth-
And if you don’t mind, you can throw in a beautiful holiday wreath.
.
The Man With All the Toys-
To be delivered shortly to all the girls and boys.
.
Winter Wonderland-
Doesn’t come naturally, as Mother Nature gives it a helping hand.
.
Frosty the Snowman-
As long as it stays cold, he’ll be on hand.
.
Here Comes Santa Claus-
You know the man, the Christmas elves’ boss.
.
Santa Claus is coming to town-
He’ll leave the North Pole, and then he
is fully around the earth bound.
.
Every year I like to get my Christmas song singing done-
But it’s so hard to figure out which is my favorite one.
