Santa, I Want a Mommy Who Doesn'T Weep

Santa, I want a mommy who doesn’t weep, maybe she could have a good night sleep. See, she’s been so down since daddy’s death, I find her all the time catching her breath. Under the tree for me would be a tissue of gold, to wipe away her tears until she grows old. She’s been so nice this year, even though she’s sad, I just want to give her the best Christmas she’s had. Dear Santa, I Want.... Contest December 5, 2017
