Santa Sack Fight 2012

Please excuse the poor poor poetry 😉

Twas three days from Christmas on a grey afternoon,
Wellingtonians were out shopping for gifts, all unaware,
a surprise was in store, the strangest sight to be seen,
100 Santa were in town, and soon all would stare.

Meeting in quiet corners, dressing in secret,
These Santa had a plan to bring smiles and delight,
Three city locations were targeted for a gathering,
100 Santa engaged in a giant Santa Sack fight!

They came at a run, yelling their arrival,
The people out shopping stopped and watched and wondered,
A sea of red from every direction converging from nowhere,
The fighting began, and with a Ho Ho Ho Santa was pounded.

And then, before long, a whistle would sound,
The fighting stopped, the Santa horde dispersing,
The crowd stands and claps, the cameras still snapping,
And Christmas cheer spreads, thanks to Adventure Wellington…
