Sinterklaas gedichten

Mijn gedichten van vanavond (Rick schrijft die van Kai en natuurlijk mij, zie hieronder):

Katja:

Lieve Katja,

Katja geeft Sint heel veel wrinkles,
Want hij moest voor haar naar wel duizend winkels,
Om vervolgens toch niet te kunnen bedenken,
Wat hij Katja nu eens zou gaan schenken!
Sint was thinking of Katja’s many accomplishments,
For which he can give her endless compliments.
About how Katja manages A’s in three AP and honors classes,
And entered the National Honor Society, which kicks asses!
Sint could wax poetically about all Katja’s caring deeds,
Which benefit unfortunate children and people with special needs.
Of course there is the occasional thorn in Sint’s eye,
Like the laundry hamper which is forever filled with dirty duds, sky high!
But Katja’s virtues far outweigh the few shortcomings I see,
Though a Saint like me she’ll never be.
Compliments are sadly not tangible,
And tonight only three dimensional gifts are acceptable.
So Sint really tired and exhausted from searching,
Found you a gift at which you’ll for certain be lurching!
Katja, my dear, Sint hopes you continue on your excellent track,
Next year, in that case, I’ll for certain be back!

Saskia:

Lieve Saskia,
Sint vindt jou een heel interessant kind,
Door heel veel mensen erg bemind.
Due to your always smiling face,
You have many friends from all over the place.
You are loving and caring and very sweet,
And that’s why the following so surprised Sint and Piet:
Lately Sint has detected some attitude,
And has heard you say things to your mom that were rather rude.
Sint hopes in the future you will think before you speak,
For being allowed to have a friend over every day is unique!
Believe it or not, your parents are quite easy going,
Sint even thinks their halos are positively glowing.
But enough of that, as you are a most wonderful kid,
And Sint also has seen all the good things you did.
When your mother went to the doctor for her heart and was stressed,
Your immediate question how she was had Sint most impressed!
And Sint found your second hole in your ear an act of courage,
So for some new bling blings he went to forage.
He ended up at your favorite store Claire’s,
And also found something that everyone wears!
So open your package and I hope you enjoy,
The pretty things Sint got for a meisje zo mooi!

Rick:

Lieve Rick,

Sint vindt jou een leuke vent,
Die een smile van oor tot oor kent!
While very busy in your every day travails,
You manage to find time for your family, it never fails.
You postpone your business trips without irritation,
So you can be present at every important family occasion!
Sint realizes even his birthday for you was important enough,
To cancel a trip to beautiful Germany, which must have been tough!
Hopefully, the wursts that you devoured tonight did some good,
So you don’t too much miss all that wonderful food.
Speaking of food, Sint knows this summer you made a big change,
And abandoned your beloved coal for an outdoor gas range!
But coal or gas, it doesn’t matter,
On both the food will burn and splatter.
This requires additional clean up after the meal,
By scrubbing and scrubbing (and scrubbing!) with a brush of steel!
Of course Sint feels badly that you end up having to do this chore,
However, he is not going to offer to do it hence more!
But a solution happily can always be found,
As technology these days is without bound!

En Ricks gedichten voor Kai en mij:

Kai

Voor Kai

Sint knows of a young man in this room,
Full of vim and vigor and really in bloom,
He’s bright and impish, really quite neat,
And when you get right down to it a favorite of Piet,
Now the man of the hour is of course good ol’ Kai,
Ready to check out his cadeautje with a twinkle in his eye,
Piet has noticed something that Kai seems to crave,
Something to do while holed up in his cave,
A glow can be seen illuminating Kai’s face,
As he’s intently focusing on something in space,
How about feeding this desire to play through the night,
By giving Kai the power for more, increasing his might!
So Kai, let’s get to it, it’s time for the climax,
Get your engine roaring this is no time to relax,
Piet komt hier, het is tijd voor iets fijn,
Geeft Kai iets special voor Sinter Klaas te zijn.

Petra:

Voor Petra

Let’s listen to a tale of a girl named Peet,
Her laugh like music her smile so great,
Sints on the way to pay his respect,
Petra has no idea what she can expect,
Watch out for the pepernoten all scattered around,
Leap over them with a hoot and a bound,
Don’t you love how these poems get wound up and keep going?
They rise up and shout out all the fun Sint’s been knowing,
How ‘bout a peek into what our gal will be getting,
From Piet and old Sint, in the snow getting a wetting.
As you relax in your chair all comfy and cozy,
You may way to enjoy some while dozy,
It’s full of great fun and ribald adventure,
With lots of twists on the road to its clincher,
Potverdikke, its late, Sint’s been yakking all night,
It’s time for the cadeautje from your favorite old sprite!
