SANTA
>
> Snowflakes softly falling, upon your window they play
> Your blankets snug around you, into sleep you drift away.
> I bend to gently kiss you, when I see that on the floor
> There's a letter, neatly written, I wonder who it's for.
>
> I quietly unfold it making sure you're still asleep,
> It's a Christmas list for Santa one my heart will always keep.
> It started just as always with the toys seen on TV,
> A new watch for your father and a winter coat for me.
>
> But as my eyes read on I could see that deep inside
> There were many things you wished for that your loving heart would hide.
> You asked if your friend Molly could have another Dad;
> It seems her father hits her and it makes you very sad.
>
> Then you asked dear Santa if the neighbors down the street
> Could find a job, that they might have some food, and clothes, and heat.
> You saw a family on the news whose house had blown away,
> "Dear Santa, send them just one thing, a place where they can stay."
>
> "And Santa, those four cookies that I left you for a treat,
> Could you take them to the children who have nothing else to eat."
> "Do you know that little bear I have the one I love so dear?
> I'm leaving it for you to take to Africa this year".
>
> "And as you fly your reindeer on this night of Jesus' birth,
> Could your magic bring to everyone goodwill and peace on earth".
> "There's one last thing before you go, so grateful I would be,
> If you'd smile at Baby Jesus in the manger by our tree."
>
> I pulled the letter close to me, I felt it melt my heart.
> Those tiny hands had written what no other could impart.
> "And a little child shall lead them," was whispered in my ear
> As I watched you sleep on Christmas Eve
> while Santa Claus was here.
>
> If this warms your heart, then send it to anyone else you know
> that might need a little "melting."
