Busch Gardens Christmas Tale of 2015

 

 

A BUSCH GARDENS CHRISTMAS TALE OF 2015

Twas the night before Christmas, the park closed for the day.
Not a creature was stirring, and the kids could no longer play.
The stockings were all present, each animal had one,
In hopes that St. Nicholas would soon to them come.
 
 
The distant Serengeti, where the rhinos do roam,
Kisiri looks at Kyota, knowing Santa will come;
Jasiri rests deeply, for only in sleep will she know,
That a treat will be waiting, even without the snow.
 
 
The moon was bright above, nary a cloud in sight.
The park brightly lit, by the Christmastown lights
A distant red light, floated against the bright moon.
And was coming ever nearer, like a camera with it’s zoom.
 
 
Then there was a jingling, a sound that does not belong,
And Simon roared with meaning, for he knew who has come.
The sky just got brighter, and the air felt just right,
He has come to Busch Gardens, with his full corncob pipe.
 
 
A jolly old fellow, dressed in red and bright white,
With a belt black as coal, and his belly pulled in tight.
He lands in Pantopia, the center of it all,
Got out of the sleigh, ready to start having a ball.
 
 
Hi Bzui, hi Mata, Bundar and Cinta.
Hi Zahra, and Sohan, Charisse and Bala!
The tigers are here, beautiful creatures they are,
But not limited to them, I am here for you all.
 
 
Jungala he starts, with the Congo nearby,
Then Egypt he does hit, passing Nairobi on the fly.
Gorillas, Cheetahs, and Penguins, with joy he does see,
And checked on Cobra’s Curse, soon he will ride it with glee.
 
 
The Edge of Africa he goes, a family second to none,
And looks over at Kita, my how she has grown.
The lions are next, as are the meerkats and babes,
Always a changing site, that he sees on this day.
 
 
The babies he visits, for he knows what to do,
And sees the young wildebeest, not one but two.
The gazelle are all roaming, and then he takes note,
The baby Grant’s Gazelle, newly born with such hope
 
 
The elephants sound off, with their trunks in the air,
And the birds all take flight, as the Flamingoes do stare.
Not a creature was missed, this welcoming night,
Even the reptiles were seen, it all felt just right.
 
 
When the old man was finished, with the gifts and the cheer,
He knew something was missing, to end out his year.
He looked to the left, and then back to the right,
Then looked at Falcon’s Fury, for this he must ride.
 
 
#FalconFace Santa, to twitter he did post,
A picture full of beard, as he dived down up close
Cheetah Hunt and Montu, with Shiekra next in line.
He enjoyed the thrill of Kumba, as he finished for the night.
 
 
Busch Gardens this year, was as fun as the past,
but what is coming soon, will be sure to be a blast.
He packs up his sleigh, and to Rudolph he says,
“Lets head on to Sea World, for we still want to play.
 
 
Santa shouts loudly, as the reindeer ready to go,
“Busch Gardens is festive, as Christmastown does show.
Be kind to them all, both the two legs and the four,
And wish them a greeting, when next you do tour!”
 
 
As the sleigh lifts to the sky, and starts fading from sight,
You can hear the distant cheer, from a man in red and white.
 
 
THE ANIMALS WE ALL LOVE, AND WE SEE THEM EVERY DAY,
 
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL, TO BUSCH GARDENS I DO SAY!!!!
