Santa Claus

Every Christmas
I receive
My share
Of gifts!  
And,
I wonder
How Santa
Knows 
What 
I need most.
My Santa
Does not come
All the way
From Greenland
Riding a Reindeer Sleigh!
He does not
Come in
Red Santa costumes
But in ordinary,
Everyday clothing
Because 
My Santa is not one
But many!
They are 
My relatives 
And, friends!
Santa need not
Be a person
In red costume! 
Santa 
Could be anyone 
Bringing gifts 
And, good cheer
To one and all 
During 
The Christmas Season…
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I don't know whether to be disappointed or delighted about Santa... Just kidding. LOL. Lovely poem, Vincent.
