Oh I woke bright and early on Christmas morn My heart racing as the paper was quickly torn For the excitement was hard for me to contain And it lasted until no presents remained Then a pain so intense surged threw me As the special gift i seeked i did not see "Oh Santa" one gift was all that i needed "Oh Santa" my gift is not here I pleaded "I have tried to be such a good girl all year" I cried out loud as my eyes filled with tears Then there near the plate with the cookies now bare was an envelope marked "Open with care" So slowly I opened it with hands all a quiver In Santa's own words I was about to deliver A message for me on a hand written note. In response to a letter That i myself wrote Dear Santa please leave me my one and only I need someone to love I am tired of being lonely Dear Lonely Heart The gift that you seek Can be found within yourself If you just take a peek For love is abundant If we just look around It always existed It doesn't need to be found And it is in each of us That God's love does shine It is the only love you'll need and that was God's design Then a warmth fell upon me and i felt all alight For no longer did i feel lonely My heart bursting forth bright And as for my one and only I have one thing to say If he walks into my life "great" If not It is still a wonderful day Merry Christmas to all and may God bless you this holiday season. |

Suzanne, what a touching piece this is...loneliness is a state of mind and heart, not necessarily being alone. |

Such a touching piece. I really loved this poem. So wonderful! 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! |

For love is abundant If we just look around It always existed It doesn't need to be found Suzanne Hi. I really enjoyed your poem. If everyone had your view, we would all have a Merry Christmas all year long. Melton |
