Directions for Santa

I gave Santa directions to your place,
    I told him to fly to Lake Tapps,
He said he couldn't see it from space,
    it just wasn't on any of his maps!

I tried to make it extremely clear,
    because his finding you was totally my wish.
Until I saw him packing scuba gear,
    then I shouted, "Bonnie and Doug, they're people not fish!"

                                     ---Donald

(I wrote this poem for my sister, Bonnie, and her husband, Doug, who live on Lake Tapps in Washington state.)
