Notes About The Poem

Santa Coming To Town

Mom’s mother would load up the car like nobody’s business. Random supplies, clothes handsewn and hand-me-downs, handmade quilts, food, oranges, 50lb tins of shortening to convert into dual-purpose storage and seats with pretty little skirts. She was determined to make the long annual roadtrip worthwhile. As kids, she was the only Santa Claus we ever knew.



                                                               every visit a winfall
                                                               worth the anticipation
                                                               hugs and blessings
