Each Christmas, Jim included a poem in cards he and my mother sent to friends and family. Some were religious, some were topical. He had mixed feelings about NAFTA.
Santa went to Mexico,
He could hire elves for less
But misfortunate came upon him,
So sad you couldn't guess.
His reindeer couldn't stand the heat
His sleigh stuck in the sand
His deliveries took 'til April 1st
With a pick-up and a van.
~December, 1996
