James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Dramatic Verse

What I Want For Christmas- -

Truth be told
I no longer want deaths and wars
Come part the horizon, Jesus
Christ come now to receive us

If there were a Santa I want only just to know his true origin
What I want for Christmas, love and freedom

Twas just a mist, history insist
The Legend of St. Nicholas
Give me thoughts of prayers
To pray for my fellow humans
 
If there were a Santa I want only just to know his true origin
What I want for Christmas, is for Jesus to come down

Lo O’ fourth-century bishop
Monk named St. Nicholas  
Born sometime around 280 A.D. 
In Patara, near Myra in modern-day Turkey

If there were a Santa I want only just to know his true origin
What I want for Christmas is for Saint Nicholas to pray with me
Admired for his piety and kindness, 
Of many legends called also Father Christmas
You can meet Santa Claus cross the magical Arctic Circle
In Rovaniemi in Lapland, Finland official
You see if there be a Santa, all I want from him
Is to pray for me, for Christ to grant me longevity of life…
Now what do you want for Christmas in this life
