A little letter to Christmas



Dear mister christmas, I patiently await. I'm filled with much love, bursting with faith.

Why I ask, should you take so long?
Aren't you the best of seasons, written
in every song?

Try they have, to imitate  your style,
 lots of parties, lots of smile, presents
 some even dare to try.

Still there was no, jingle bells, or
sleigh ride.

Mom said I've been a good boy, and my reward awaits, I know she speaks to my favourite time, I can't lose  what's at stake.

Hurry on mister christmas,
please don't take too long. I've counted all my silver coins, but you hold all the gold ones.
