"Secret Santa"
I was a Secret Santa In High School to a girl named Renee. I placed hamburgers and stuff in her locker as secret gifts. The
Poem pretty much tells all. Enjoy
'Twas the nights before Christmas and all through the school. Not a creature was peaking not even a fool.
The best present I hid in the locker with care. Had been dumped by myself, who had put it in there.
My friends had long been guessing while they were in their beds. To wake in the morning to see
what they dread.
My friend was dying with her head in her lap, and me sucking wind from running ten
laps.
When out in the hall there came an awful smell. I sprang to my feet to see what the hell.
I put
down my ball and tore out like a flash. Tripped over my own feet and fell with a crash.
I twisted my
ankle but I really didn't care. I just wanted to get the heck out of there.
When what did my wondering
eyes did show up? But a half eaten hamburger, not a coffee cup.
With a lil penguin who looked really
fly. It sure isn't today what money can buy.
Like Dawn always asks whose santa had came? while you wait
patiently for her to call your name.
So up the halls Renee runs with her books. To bring back the
presents that someone had snuck.
And then in a twinkle I heard from a friend. did you see what Renee
got again and again?
I pulled up my shorts and cocked a sharp ear. Far down the hallway Renee we
could hear.
She ran in the gym and fell flat on her rear. Her gifts went a flying from far and near.
She
picked them up it looked kind of tacky. But Renee we all know is a little bit wacky.
She had maxi pads
and candy in her book bag on her back. And the smell of a half eaten hamburger that could knock a
train off its track.
She spoke not a word , but went straight to work. Getting our balls, and calling
Debbie a jerk.
Then putting the balls on the end of the rack. Making sure that the balls is in a nice
neat stack.
I heard her last words as she left for the night. See ya tomorrow, I got all the balls
right????
