A Prayer To Santa

As I write to you Santa, please allow me to say, All my presents and happiness can wait another day. No, gifts are not what I want this holiday season, I hope we can bring this idea to a treason. It's crazy to ask, but please give the joy to my mommy, She's very ill and the doctors only told me they were sorry. That would be my gift this Christmas, just help her get better, I hope you and your magic will have a cure, so please read this letter. Dear Santa, this is more of a prayer that I hope you can fulfill, So please, if you heal her and help her walk again, I hate to see her still. She can't talk to me anymore, her sickness is too much to bear, And the doctors don't know what to do, she is too far out of their care. If you are real, then please give her my presents this year, This prayer is for her, for she is the one person who is dear. With your Christmas magic, give her life again, You can, aren't you the big man?
