    Default A Boys Wish For Christmas


    A Boys Wish for Christmas









    The little boy sat and wrote his letter to Santa Claus
    He wrote while thinking, without a pause
    He asked Santa to bring his Daddy home from Iraq
    I will run and hug him and even help him with his back pack
    I miss him taking me hunting, fishing, and playing ball
    I stare at his picture each night on my wall
    Santa, I know you are busy with Christmas stuff
    But my Mommy says my Dad being gone is very tough
    She cries at night when she goes to bed
    I don’t want her to see me cry, so I cover my head
    Last night we put up our big Christmas tree
    When we were done she smiled but in her eye, a tear I could see
    Then we sat down and wrote Daddy a Christmas card
    And I added a picture of me hitting the baseball “REAL” hard
    My Daddy would be so very proud of me
    I have been the man of the house almost a year but it seems like three
    My friends at school talk about the trips they took with their Dad
    About all the things they did and the good time they had
    I listen and laugh when they tell of where they went
    But the only time I had with my Dad was from a letter he had sent
    Santa, I know why my Dad and the others are fighting over there
    They do it for our Country and the freedom we all share
    But Santa there is only one thing I want for Christmas that I hope for and I pray
    Bring my Daddy home for Christmas Day
