There was never any question Of what Annies' wish would be She climbed upon his waiting lap And smiled up at him so sweet There is only one thing on my list A special wish you see Santa all I want this Christmas Day Is for you to bring mommy back to me She went to heaven a month ago And ever since that night My daddy's eyes are full of tears Even when I hold him tight I dont know how to make him smile To take his hurt away Except for mommy to be there come Christmas Day I havent been a real good girl But Santa I promise I will try I'll make my bed and clean my room And I promise not to lie So keep the bike and the dolly And all the other toys I've learned they dont mean nothing They cant bring me any joy I'll leave you milk and cookies And even carrots by our tree So you can rest in where its warm But please bring mommy back to me She looks up in the old mans eyes Ands sees the truth on his tear stained face Her little shoulders tremble And she looks about the place At all the other parents Suddenly holding their children tight Then her eyes fall on the nativity With its star shining so bright I guess I really shouldnt ask For something even God couldnt do So I'll say goodbye Santa please dont cry Merry Christmas to you. |

Very sad.......but a great poem nonetheless  "I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust." I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them! |
