Christmas List

[John Barnett]

Although this poem was written two years ago at Christmas, the meaning behind still holds true to my heart. The Christmas of 2002 will always hold a very dear place in my heart and soul, if only I could have the things I had back then...

They asked me to make a Christmas list
A list that entails my every wish
Many things I would enjoy to recieve
But in my heart all I believe
Is that you are the only gift I truly want this year
For your heart to be joined with mine my dear
Santa can't put you under my tree
But God can send you to me this I believe
So all I can do is sincerely pray
That maybe you could be mine on Christmas Day

Hm. This just pulses with wishful hoping.
Love your wording here, and
how simple the message is,
yet it's so nicely written with
deep emotion and hope.
Awesome write.
