Santa Has a Secret Wish

Santa kept his secret big wish to himself.
Not wanting to worry or fluster
his elf on the shelf.

Elf on the shelf is silent, we know.
But he becomes empathetically magical
in Christmas Eve snow.

Santa’s biggest wish in the world
was to have his own Christmas pup.

He woke up December 23rd 
Took a sip from his cup

His Elf on the shelf seemed to be missing
Santa searched and found his Elf kissing….

a brand new puppy – a big surprise!
Elf on the shelf met Santa’s eyes.

Merry Christmas’s Eve’s Christmas Eve Santa he said with glee
Thought you could hide your truest wish from an Elf like me?

I think all elves are kind and hopefully all Santas
