DEAR SANTA


Dear Santa, I‘m older
But, still believe in you
(At least, I believe in
The things you try, to do).

Maybe, I can’t ask for
A Tonka, or, a train.
(But, if you’d bring one of them
You know, I won’t complain).

But, what I really wish for
Is a special present
Love that will be, "returned"
Once it has been sent.

Everybody needs a little
And some, need a lot
But, if you get a tiny bit
You still know what you got.

So Santa, drop a little
Under each Christmas tree
Then, all will get a present
From what it’s ‘posed to be.

And if there is no tree
For the alone, and poor
When you get, to their place
Just, drop, a little more.

Del "Abe" Jones

Very sweet, Abe.   I liked your play on words, "love that will be [returned]";
(it reminds me of the after Christmaas rush to the malls to return all those gifts.  I remember once my mother, a non-shopper, worked really hard to find that perfect gift for someone special.  The special returned the gift even though it fit, and broke my mother's heart.  She has never been the same about Christmas since!   I hope that this doesn't happen to anyone out there!)

Enjoyed this.   Merry Christmas.
