To the man who folks call Santa Clause.
I truly hope that you exist.
And will give close consideration,
To each item on my list.

It has taken several months to write
And was not scribbled down in greed.
I’m not asking for anything fancy,
Just a few things that I need.

I’d like to start by saying,
I’ve been as good as good can be.
So you’d have no trouble bringing,
These simple things to me.

I’d like to have a winter coat,
And some mittens would be nice,
The ones I wear have giant holes,
And let my fingers turn to ice.

I would like to have a bed,
That I could call my own.
Instead of sleeping on a pull-out couch,
With a brother who’s nearly grown.

Please help my mom to find a job,
She really has been trying.
So that when I go to sleep at night,
I will no longer hear her crying.

Well, I guess that that is all I need,
That`s everything on my list.
To the man who folks call Santa Clause
I truly hope that you exist.
