Hello Rowens,
thank you for commenting (and persevering!),
As the final line makes crystal clear, this poem is entirely about Father Christmas.
I'm not sure what you mean by heaviness, and rhymes that 'don't have to be there'? - they drive the narration, as well as being pretty?
'The paternal father, christ, Santa Nick, some beliefs' - I reckon misconception of the subject is the whole point....
Appreciate your time and thoughts............P
