A Letter To Santa From Aus~
Hello Santa up in sky
Mummy says I can wave goodbye
To the bicycle I wish for so much
She says this year Santa has lost touch
I don't know what she means
I said my prayers and ate them beans
But mummy's been stressed out these days
Seems daddy works, for not much pays
And Santa, My lil sis she'd like a new dolly
But mummy says, it won't happen, pro'lly
Santa I heard 'em talkin about some hard times have hit
Said "Things look bad but we'll get over it
That's what dad says to me mum
"Ride this one through, better things will come"
But I was thinkin' to myself
If I send a letter to Santa or his Elf
He'll read my little wish, yep! a bike for me and a doll for sis
So it's me! typing in my very best
An email letter
Cause ya know Santa? From school I got your address
Santa!?
All the kids here say that you will make it through
So Santa We Are All Counting On You.
To give Mum and Dad a Christmas break
Cause whatever you bring us will help to make
Christmas this year a Special Day
Thanks Santa that's all I got to say!
Cause me teacher's calling me out to play!
Oops Santa.. This is From BJ!

ReplyDeleteLOL thanks Phoebe.
ReplyDeleteI like the touch and use of language here. I suspect very reflective of an Aussie child. Very nice, Milli. Huggers 8=)
ReplyDeleteOdd sometimes how children will be so intent on Christmas and Santa, but when it's playtime ... well, it's time to play!
That's a wonderful little letter to Santa. Yes, even kids seem to know that we're heading into hard times. This reminds me of something I heard back in the late 80's or early 90's. It was a little boy asking his father what a recession was. The father answered: "A recession is when you get underwear for Christmas." Thanks for the poem! ;-D

Many of us have/are having hard times. I think your letter probably reflects what many children around the world want Santa to know.
ReplyDeletegreat little poem about the hards times, and continued hope.
