Poem
TOMMY’S CHRISTMAS WISH Tommy was a wee young boy, And asked mommy to write and Ask Santa for a special toy Tommy was only four years old, And lived with Mommy, As his Daddy, Brad, had gone to Canada, To find a job, The family was poor, and he Had to make an extra bob! What is daddy like he asked His mom Tommy’s mom began to hum A song that her son Well remembered, And that she knew Tommy treasured. Her husband had been away From home for over a year, This brought a tear To her eye for Tommy’s sake, He had not really known His dad, this made her sad, And hoped that Brad, Would soon be back. Tommy read his mom’s thoughts And asked that she must please Ask Santa to bring him back, That’s all he wanted for Christmas, As he missed dad and loved Him a stack! Tommy dozed off to sleep And mother Sandy knelt Down to pray, Please God let Brad, Come back even for Just a day ! In Iceland, Santa had started Packing his toys Right for the boys and Left for the girls Those were the ones, He had tied with Frills, whirls and curls! Elfs, pixies and Mrs. Santa too, All helped, they made a Magnificent crew. Santa was tired as he Packed the last toy On his sleigh, When he noticed a letter Floating his way! It was marked express mail, And Santa read it as he did All his mail, without fail! After he had finished reading Tommy’s letter from his mum, He patted his plump tum, And rubbed his beard, He knew where Tommy’s Dad was, Because, He had in error received A similar letter from Brad, Tommy’s Dad, That he was soon coming back. He was so sorry, He was away so long, He was working as a lumberjack They no longer had to worry He had made money, enough And he was hitching a ride With Santa, great stuff! For Santa had replied to Brad, And told him to be on the ready, And look out for a sleigh That was fast and not too steady, For Santa was getting old, And not quite as fast or bold! Santa picked up Tommy’s dad From Canada, Hey Santa, said Brad, You really do exist, Woaah! Drive carefully, There’s a lot of Mist! We’re landing, said Santa Put on your belt, Such fascination and awe, Brad had never felt! Loaded with presents, He tiptoed into Tommy’s room And woke up his son, There was such excitement Second to none, Both were over come And wept with joy, Sandy heard the noise, And ran to Tommy room, Happy Christmas darling he said, And Sandy cried, As she hugged her two boys! It was Christmas day, And Tommy and Sandy’s Wish had come true, Hope that families apart on This joyous day Come together, For that we all pray!
