[bodytext] => Dear Santa, I hope you read this letter That I will mail this cold winter night Hopefully the postman will deliver It before Christmas Eve's light I've always believed in your magic Every year I would send my dreams I'd always worry you'd get airsick As you sailed through the moonbeams As a child, there were no end to promises All wishes were meant to be granted Santa could zip all around the atlas To bring what a child's heart demanded As an adult, my perception changed Dreams became harder to be believed The world suddenly seemed rearranged Wishes promised were often deceived This seemed to be how it was doomed to stay I thought all the magic of Christmas gone At least until the most wonderful day My children's wonder proved me wrong Momma, are you going to put up the tree Mommy, can I help set the star on top Momma, look at the lights, look, look, see Mommy, will Santa make our house a stop Tears fill my eyes as I gaze at their faces I feel their wonder, their joy, their belief I know that you exist; don't need traces I explain you'll stop, much to their relief My Christmas wish, the point of this letter Will you grant this please, for me Teach man how to make this world better Let only love and hope be man's decree I wish for everyone, no matter the age To know the wonder of a child's mind May all the anger, hate, useless rage Be forever erased from all of mankind Merry Christmas and God bless everyone May your day be filled with joy from the start Remember as you open a gift from someone Santa stopped, guided by love from a heart [comments] => 2 [counter] => 147 [topic] => 18 [informant] => dvtpdw [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Holiday Poetry )
