Dear Santa

A letter to Santa from Wellington District Police"





Dear Santa



We’ve been so busy Santa Claus, us boys and girls in blue;



Keeping all our cities safe and our roadways too.



We’re counting down the sleeps, with loved ones, ‘til you’re here,



But Santa, there are just some things we ask of you this year.





Please help all drivers to slow down and think of what’s ahead



So we don’t knock on someone’s door and get them out of bed;



To tell them that their loved one, with gifts beneath the tree,



Won’t be coming home tonight to be with family.



Dear Santa, please don’t let them drink too many wines or beers,



We know it’s fun to celebrate and toast the Christmas cheer,



But Santa please don’t let them drink and then decide to drive



Make sure that someone’s sober and gets them home alive.



And Santa there is one more thing we’d like to ask of you,



As people travel near and far, make sure they’re rested too.



A thin paint line upon the roads is all that stands between,



Them and other travellers, so make sure that they’re seen.



And we’ll be out there on the roads keeping a watchful eye,



Reminding folks to play it safe, as summer days roll by.



So thank you jolly old St Nick for listening to our call



Here’s to a Merry Christmas, that’s safe for one and all.



Yours sincerely



Wellington District Police
