Well I did ask Santa for a Tesla Model S in 2016, but whatever happened, he apparently didn't get my note... (still waiting/hope springs eternal!):
Twas the night before Christmas
and no one could tell
their arse from their elbow
"when to buy, when to sell.."
The president-elect
appeared to be real
set to gamble the planet
in the 'Art of the Deal'
Two thousand sixteen
was a helluva curve-ball
colored by "Me! Me!"
(seems to trump what would serve all)
Yet while bugaboos leer
and bugaboos lurch
there's the elf-sprite delighting
in every new perch
Cuz we just won't be squished
by what shadows may fling
and we have an ear tuned
to where Merry bells ring
Then ring in the Merry
and ring in the Cheer
focus on wonder
Afar-off and Right Here
Focus on how things can turn on a dime
how clunky can suddenly smooth into rhyme
How 'ugly' can suddenly split at the seams
and nothing but nothing is quite what it seems
We have weathered some twisters
we've weathered some storms
we've been spun around wildly
popped into new norms
So our Dad loved the Bentley
the Jag, and Rolls Royces
And Grandfather felt the same way
about horses
We're spanning a century
keep dreaming anew
keep Wishing our Wishes
And watch what comes true
For this Hummingbird Woman
has blood in her veins
that is greening the planet
rejoicing in rains
rejoicing in rivers
rejoicing in seas
Emoto confirmed;
we affirm from the lees;
What was once seen as 'waste'
can be 'phoenix'd' right up
(Cradle 2 Cradle)
This Yuletide to sup
So this Night Before Christmas
the "up on the roof" lore
is morphing and bringing
what I'd give my eye teeth for!
And I'm saying "Why Thank You!"
You shouldn't have, but,
that old Santa's sleigh
was sure stuck in a rut
Hey! Look at her headscarf!!
And the mud on her boots :)
Just look at that belt
full of seedlings & roots
Keep the oil in the ground
build topsoil for sowing
Knowing #WaterisLife
and we Love what we're Growing!!
And Please Babushka deliver
from under your dress
An Elon Musk Tesla
(no tail-pipe!) Model S!

PS NOT my photo as you can see by the signature on it. Just that my strong preference was for a white Tesla with a red "T"
