A Letter To Santa Part One Please Read First

As I lie near the covers all cosy and tight I smile when I think Santa’s coming tonight Most of the Prezzies are under the tree But Mum say’s Santa’s coming especially for me I wrote him a letter which I put in the mail Asking him to bring me a boat I could sail Down by the lake with my best friend Ted And maybe with Susie, Tim, Alice and Ned I added some kisses and promised I’d be good Not to make a fuss and to do as I should In my boat we’d be Pirates and sail the Spanish Main Or men in a trawler, fighting storm and hurricane Or explorers in the Antarctica seeing what was up Or maybe the crew on the America’s Cup Or we’d join the Navy, pretend my boat a sub We might even form a secret sailing club W hen we got to shore we’d drink slurpiees by the tub Discuss our adventures and eats lots of grub I put in a request for Susi’s new hair She hates it when the kids at school always stare Alice a doll and Ned a fancy guitar My sister a boyfriend and Dad a new car Susie say’s cause he Jewish, Santa can’t give to Tim I reckon she’s bonkers, Santa can’t forget about him He needs new braces and a new teddy bear As he gave his to Peter when he lost all his hair I know Timmy’s Jewish, but so was God’s son And they say the Lord Jesus he loves everyone I asked Santa to help my Parents, not worry about me For the Lord, my friends not to take to heaven with thee For Peace in the world, joy and content To stop all the fighting and unemployment To give Mummy roses and a great big hug For the Doctors and nurses let me do a jitterbug So as I lay near the covers all cosy and tight I’m glad Santa’s really coming tonight (continued)

Looks like you have good descriptiveness and rhyming in this presentation. I wish to proceed on to part two.

Dear Lizzie...I am fascinated by the rhyming and the theme....Now listen, when Santa gets to your home, make him take off his boots and kick up his feet bc you're gonna need extra time to get this "proposal" published. haha ha. I am in love with the first half of your poem...Poor lil Timmy..whew! Enjoyed the jitter bug...I can envision you dancin it too. Happy Hollydays. Gwendolen
