For Santa Claus - Nursery Rhyme

On Christmas Eve, good children wait with glee
for what dear Santa leaves beneath the tree.
But think about dear Santa Claus because
there is a lot of hard work that he does!

You hang your stockings up for something sweet.
But do you know he’d also like a treat?
So here is something good that you can do.
Leave out some milk for him – and cookies too!

Hello Andrea - Any title with santa attached is inviting and an eye catcher. Your entry did not disappoint. It is a feel good and light entry for all ages. Thank you for sharing. May this day find you well. Keep enjoying poetrysoup.

And to think that all these years I’ve left out my finest brandy and deep filled mince pies. Well it’s water and cream crackers this year! Nice nursery rhyme Andrea, good luck in contest. Terry

So well penned; deserves its own nursery rhyme book. Illustrated by someone who loves to draw.
