Mistletoe at Midnight

An old theme, tried and true.

————

I

saw

Santa

Claus take pause

then start to unwrap

my mommy sitting on his lap!

When Mommy blinked, Santa winked, then he said, “Time for bed!

Let’s have us a long winter’s nap,”

and gave her a slap

(just a bit

down where

she’ll

sit).

And when

I saw him

notice me, then he

said “Ho-Ho-Ho! I’m sure I know

that cute young lady, staring so, sitting on a stair,

a place which she can share next year

with yet another,

perhaps a

brother,

my

dear.”
