LETTER TO SANTA

Dear Santa, I've been waiting
all year for you to come,
and I've been good, so very good,
and you can ask my Mom.

I know that she will tell you
how helpful I have been;
I've washed a lot of dishes
and I've cleaned up the den.

My daddy says I've been real good
to say my prayers at night,
and I've been very careful
to not get in a fight.

Now, as I write this letter
to tell you what to bring,
I just want to make it clear to you
I don't need anything.

You see, I'm very lucky;
I have a lot of toys,
and I believe I have more clothes
than other girls and boys.

Oh, Santa, if you're up there,
I hope this note you'll read,
and give the gifts you have for me
to those who are in need.

Now, everyday on TV
I see kids who have no food,
or medicine to help them
when they're not feeling good.

So, Santa, I am asking you
to please bring to the poor.
I think they will appreciate;
I know I will, for sure!
