For a father who is not very handy, assembling the children’s Christmas gifts can be a trying experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once again it is Christmas,
That time of the year,
When a father, all thumbs,
Is trembling with fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mother is cooking,
All through the day.
While Dad is assembling,
So the children can play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And words very strong,
Through clenched teeth are hissing,
This blankety-blank,
The darn part is missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oh, Santa, they love you,
Their stockings you filled,
But why don’t you learn,
These darn toys to build?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You bring them in pieces,
Parts A, B, and C,
They should go right together,
Just one, two, and three.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the simple instructions,
For making them whole?
I’m afraid you forgot them,
They’re at the North Pole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, Santa, next year,
One gift for me bring,
Assembly instructions,
For each little thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
