Joe Paduda's first annual Reflections on Christmas poem

As commissioned by Prez Premo

-ahem...

And so it is Christmas, and what have you done?
Another year older, and erging not begun.
Instead we sit flabby, and porky and fat
Resolving to row, when we’ve done this and that.

So much to do, the year’s already gone by,
the season’s approaching,
with crews ready to fly.
Off to Seattle, to enhance SU’s rep
They’ll kick Huskie ass,
On that you can bet.

We’ll be celebrating ‘010
As the Orange alums
Drink cheer from all the cups
that both teams have won.

The women and men
Will bring Christmas cheer
To alums old and young,
Far away and right here.

So support Dave and Kris
And all their athletes,
And work towards success
Of both Orange fleets!
