When Santa Dropped By the Right House

I awake on this Christmas Day With a warmth that never will stray This is the time when we remember who was born And was able to free us from our evil scorn. Even know I never had a reason to hate Since my positive attitude always got things straight. Santa arrived at the door last night Bearing wisdom about how to deal with this diplomatic might He told me in a whisper Use kind words instead of a two handed fister For when the talk is calm The dialogue can diffuse any type of conversational bomb I responded to this one old wise man That this is a unique way to take a stand He continued his address On how to make the enemy confess There is only a short time to interact Do not waste it on the verbal attack End the visit with a reason To find peace during the holiday season Maybe apologize for what you did To start the angry fit Or offer forgiveness to those who matter Letting it go before it gets any more tattered And when everyone’s spirit is high Tell of this wonderful Santa guy He was here last night Spreading joy with his magical light. Filled with love and charm Who only brings peace without any harm, Listen to this wise man with gifts Who gives us all these wonderful emotional lifts, We will follow him wherever he goes To make sure he never gives up that special glow. My wife exclaimed Santa was here And that was the signal to leave the bed and enjoy his cheer.
