Sipping Cider With My Sweetheart

Imagine my surprise when After a long day’s work I’m ready to turn in And I’m stopped dead in my tracks Sitting up under the covers Waiting for me Is Santa Claus!! I only recognize him ‘Cause he's wearing his hat Truth be told He looks an awful lot Like my sweetheart With his white beard So thinking quick on my feet I make him promise Not to move an inch As I run out to grab Cold cider in two glasses This is the most memorable Romantic visit I’d ever had AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on November 17, 2018 for contest COOL WRITES & IMAGINATION sponsored by KIM RODRIGUES
