A Holiday Greeting

Twas the night before Christmas and up on the roof
there was quite the matter of this I have proof.
The phones started ringing and calls they amassed
much as they’ve done in Christmases past.
“I have a leak maybe 3 maybe 4”
the callers were frantic we’ve heard it before.
Load up the trucks send out the men
on routes they have traveled they’ll travel again.
Up thru the hatch or even by ladders
they came face to face with a roof all in tatters.
“How can this be when the traffic’s below
there’s no one up here I’m sure I would know!”
Well we know our roofs and we know them well
and from all that we know we know we can tell.
For even a membrane that’s 60 mil thick
a sled and 8 reindeer will ruin it quick.
