This is so adorable! It is exactly the kind of scheme my brother and I would've cooked up when we were very young. Except it would have been a net, or possibly something like a mouse trap.

Brilliant! Poor Santa. Ha.

Wishing you all the best with the voters. :)

    Thanks so much Gloria! Much appreciated! My real life nephew and niece are staying up all night in the living room right now with cookies attempting to enact this scenario. I did not find a Grinch outfit in time.

This is a great Christmas 5-7-5 poem. Children can be quite mischievous when they want to. What better way to have Santa around, then by putting him in a cage brilliant.

Well done and good luck in the contest

    Thanks very much Cecilia! I added the kids to the picture only at the very end, and seems it was a good idea : )

Ciao poet, you now have your 2nd vote.

You got my vote for the originality of your poem.

To trap Father Christmas was surely every kids dream.

And I don't doubt it still is for some adults now ( biggrin)


The artwork is awesome!

These stayed up until three with A taser and some cookies need to be put on the naughty list next year so they only get a lump of cold in their stockings. I enjoyed reading this very much and got a chuckle out of it.

    Thank you very much, and yes exactly. I kept trying to add coal to the image but it was not rendering well, so I left it out. Maybe there will be a sequel ...
