Premiere Contest WinnerWaiting Or Not

Listen to poem:
Santa Baby
Santa I have been waiting 
Waiting for a long time 
Waiting forever for Christmas presents 
Presents my soul craves
Presents for children you make
Make for me my favourite please
Make for me a home to sleep
Sleep is all I need right now
Sleep from morning till sun down
Down I will lay my tired head
Down on a comfy bed
Bed for my aching back
Bed for the children 
Children have a wish list for you
Children ask for silly things like children do
Do please come very soon
Do please bring of course the Christmas food
Food for you I will leave 
Food of cookies and milk for you to feed
Feed Donner and Blitzen
Feed Rudolph too
Too many times I have written to you
Too many times I have waited for a gift from you
You come and go 
You pass me by
By the fake pine trees I come to lie 
By this time now you should have come
Come to me and do not run
Come and let us have some fun
Fun in the sun 
Fun on this little Island
Island of the Caribbean 
Island of black green and gold 
Gold just like the hot sun
Gold gift for me and everyone
Everyone has seen you by now
Everyone even the naughty and the nice
Nice I will be no more
Nice is for the rich not for the poor
Poor I am 
Poor I will be no more
More gifts you deliver
More time to get away in the sleigh
Sleigh I want up in the air
Sleigh will not go for Santa I am not
Not to me you will ever come
Not this year but next year please
Please…
Come…
