When Santa rides out on his sleigh
The little kids all shout "hurray"

From “Glühwein” with gleaming bouquet
Previous three excellent pieces of art were created some years ago on either of the 'Mornington' sites by some of the most frequent and genius submitters, so I am not the only one to blame!

How I wished I had died on that day
The survivors march by
Kids and I wonder why
As I hear Waltzing Matilda play
