Dreaming of Santa

I lay in my bed the clock struck twelve No sign of reindeer or presents or elves He promised this year to not let me down Old rolly poley Santa dressed in velvet and down My cookies were placed on the table in view A full glass of milk to be dipped into And I in my silk negligee and red lipstick Patiently awaiting my dear Saint Nick The wind was howling the snow was heavy But in a sleigh no excuse not like a Chevy Another glass of vino and I heard a loud bang From the rooftop above reindeer bells did rang I ran to the tree by the chimney with glee Santa had kept his promise to me He came down the chimney all dressed in red Boots of black so shiny bells on his head I hugged him so hard and gave him a kiss I love you so much Mr Saint Nick And for you my dear soul I have brought you a gift Tears streamed down my cheeks for he was my wish Nothing else Santa could give me My heart was filled with such love and glee He gobbled the cookies and chugged the milk Than up the chimney he went covered in silt And off his reindeers flew pulling the sleigh God bless you my child I cannot delay
