But I Want to be a Reindeer

"Seven swans a swimming..." swans are beautiful, my darling. "
I wasn't winning. He didn't wanna be swimming.
"I want to be a reindeer, not a bird."
Would he have the last word?

Grump, grump, moping, tears,
one sweet sister makes it all disappear.
At church, in the holiday show,
Brother and sister are buck and doe.
Now Puck is a reindeer too,
from his head to his little shoe

He still has to dress like a swan for the show,
but this might, perhaps
just soften the blow.
