  I woke up with such scare when I heard Santa call...
  "Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!"
  I ran to the lawn and in the snowy white drifts,
  those nasty reindeer had left "little gifts".

  I got an old shovel and started to scoop,
  neat little piles of "Reindeer Poop!"
  But to throw them away, seemed such a waste,
  so I saved them, thinking-you might like a taste!

  As I finished my task, which took quite awhile.
  Old Santa, passed by and he sheepishly smiled.
  And I heard him exclaim as he was in the sky...
  "Well they're not potty trained, but at least they
can fly!"
