Santa's Wish
SANTA’S WISH
This time of the year.
Whispers in Santa’s ear.
Elicit Ho, Ho, Hos.
Smiles of children.
Laughter of folklore.
At a mythical figure.
Master of illusion.
Whose sole purpose.
Is to create holiday bliss.
For all who believe.
St. Nick has a list.
With their names affixed.
Throughout history.
A magical fantasy.
Of complicity.
In “good” deception.
Among men, women, and children.
Coalescing in a conspiracy.
Of reciprocity.
For the most incredible gift of all.
Love and giving to each other.
The essence of Santa’s spirit.
In a world needing more, not less.
Than once a year.
A hearty Ho, Ho, Ho.
Not just for children to hear.
As Santa whispers.
“I wish it were all year.”
