A CHRISTMAS LIST BECOMES A CHRISTMAS WISH


   A CHRISTMAS LIST BECOMES A
         CHRISTMAS WISH

I wrote to Santa and told him I'd been good.
It was hard but I did what I could.
I told him I wanted an x-box 360 and a BB gun.
No underwear or socks nothing thats not fun.
A new DVD player and a original football.
Oh yes Santa my little sister wants a baby doll.
Out the window I looked and what did I see.
It was a man cutting down one of our pine trees.
My dad ran out and said"hey what's going on".
The man said"we needed a tree and we didn't think
          you'ld mind if it wasn't on your lawn".
He also told my dad I'm out of work and times are rough.
No tree no gifts there Christmas is gonna be tough.
I got a piece of paper and rewrote Santa's letter.
I'm wishing for our neighbors Christmas to be better.
I looked that morning there was nothing under our tree.
Dad and mom said don't be sad we done a Christmas deed.
