Every Thursday, filled with glee

Print


"Hello To The World", chuckles Santa with glee,
As he brings all the gifts that he leaves by the tree.
He eats the mince pies, and sips at the wine,
Before grabbing the carrot on which Rudolph will dine.

He sets down the gifts in their perfect position,
Then returns to the fireplace, full of ambition.
Up through the chimney, he starts his ascent,
Having left his replies to the letters kids sent.

His sleigh is stood waiting on the roof of the house,
So he climbs back aboard, and begins to announce,
"Let's go to the next place, and hope it's a winner,
I'm sick of mince pies and I just want my dinner."

Up in the sky, and just as he reckoned,
They landed again in about half a second.
Then Santa repeated his festive routine,
Climbing down through the chimney without being seen.

SoRocky


While Santa is busy on rooftops, in snow,
Pakz is found mining the rocks down below.
Chipping away at the boulders he's seen,
Trying to light up the pixels onscreen.

He sprites through the night, and continues all day,
To remove all the unwanted pixels away.
And then when he's done, he'll hold up the rocks,
And secure all the images with all kinds of locks.

SoCards


The game is afoot, but the family's gone home.
The player is left to play games on its own.
But sick of the games that are bought every year,
The sight of a label brings on an idea.

Taking a deck from a box on the shelf,
The cards are all dealt by the hand of the elf.
Drawing an ace, a king and a pair,
For the Second of Santa's Christmas Solitaire.

SoCreative


As the days draw shorter and time keeps apace,
The coders continue their endless race,
To create lots of content, and build a collection,
Of various things. It's quite a selection.

They draw lots of images with knitting and sprites.
They create with a shader, make patterns with lights.
Skyscrapers high, and buildings of brick.
Some of them small, whilst others quite slick.

SoAdvent


All through December, the doors have been opened,
And pictures were posted of things that have happened.
Some coffee's been drunk and the spices poured on,
As Star Wars from rubber was magically born.

Spoilers are heavily used in this thread,
Take care as you wander, and watch where you tread.
Beware all the ewoks and androids alike,
And the dangerous levels your sugars may spike.

SoSyntax


On a programming forum which isn't SoCoder,
The staff have begun on a mission much bolder.
To write every Christmas, and maybe more often,
A whole magazine, which to you they will offer.

Grab it online for there is not a price,
So download it once, or perhaps even twice.
There's coding adventures, and more to be seen,
You can print it all off, or just read it onscreen.

SoMuchMore


Today is the day to spend time in the house,
Eat a lovely roast dinner, trade gifts with the spouse.
Presents for children, the cat gets a treat,
And a bone for the dog that it struggles to eat.

The weather outside is delightfully cold,
With snowflakes quite large and incredibly bold.
So lock the front door, and wrap up warm and cosy,
Drink lots of mulled wine to keep your cheeks rosey.

Relax by the fire with stories to tell,
Of events from the year that didn't go well.
And all of the things that turned out alright,
As the snowfall continues right into the night.
