I don't know if Santa will ever get my letter. Perhaps when I get my wings, I'll have a chat with the main man up above.

Dear Santa Claus, can I ask a wish 
A wish come true- for everyone 
Be'eth I too old..to ask 
Will it fit on your sleigh 
It's not a small wish 
It's humongous 
Everyone
Will love 
It 

I 
Myself 
Will share it 
To one and all 
To the entire world 
Even for you, Santa 
Several times I wrote you 
I wished for peace and love on earth 
Maybe I forgot to put the stamps

Good morning, Charlie. I'm sure if it was in Santa's power to gift the world with peace, he would. I wish you happiness and a fine contest placement.
