More Xmases

Edward S. Sorenson

 

The call me a loafer they say I’m no good,
        I won’t dig in their garden,
Nor chop in their wood;
        They don’t know I’m studyin’
While they slight me and frown,
        To invent a wingwum to wind the sun down.

Now look at the waiting ‘twill save every year,
        Just fancy a twelvemonth since Xmas was here!
But, oh, ‘twill come often
        And bring me renown,
When I’ve finished my wingwum
        To wind the sun down.

E.S.S.
