Dear Santa...
Dear Santa, it has surely been
one of those busy years
You lose one thing and find another
to bring you
love and cheer
Me? I found a new
family
and I really do
believe
That a special
star had lead them here
just like on Christmas Eve.
This may not be
Bethlehem
and I may not be a
babe
But I'm just as precious as the child
born on Christmas day -
You see, Santa, I am a
gift
to those who were in need
They lost their friend and came to find
another friend in me!
And now as Christmas time draws near
and we plan
festivities
There'll be food and people and cuddles
and it all will be for me -
But I won't be wearing Santa hats
I'll make that known for sure
No
mistletoe or antlers please,
just cuddles, love and more!
A
jolly time we'll surely have
though it is bound to be
One of mixed emotions
and their first with me -
But it will also be their first
without their other love,
She who left this world behind
to Rainbow Bridge above
So, Santa, that's where I come in
and so my friend must you
Fill their
stockings with gifts of love
and I'll show my
gratitude
Place them now beneath the
tree
and
shine on them beyond
Bring them
peace to ease the pain
they've felt all year long
Dear Santa, they need you now
moreso than I do
To bring a little Christmas cheer
and love in plentitude -
This is all I ask of you
from the bottom of my heart,
Please make this Christmas a special one -
with all my
love, RaRa.

Dear Santa,
My
family is busy at this time
So I am writing you a letter,
I have been a good girl -
But perhaps could have been better.
I wonder as you travel
What do you really see,
A little town of
Bethlehem,
A
star or Christmas
tree.
I have most things I really need
But as I hear the Christmas
bell,
There are wishes I have for others
And these I'd like to tell.
I would like love to
shine at Christmas
In fact for the whole year,
I'd wish for
peace all round the world
So we would have no fear.
A holy, happy
festive time
With
carols in the park,
Sparkling candles shining brightly
To light our way in the dark.

Dear Santa,
My list this year is short
I'm trying to keep it small
There's not much I really want you see
And I hope I may get it all
My first wish is for
peace on Earth
And
love to everyone
To all my friends and
family
May your happiness be undone
The next wish on my list
Is for all to receive
The
gift of
Christ's love for us
It's meant for all indeed
Lastly all I wish for
Is a
tree with a
star on top
To
shine through out the holiday
With a brightness that never stops

Dear Santa,
This year has been wonderful,
So im writing to tell you,
I don’t need any
gifts at all.
My
Family is the best gift of all.
There full of
Love and
Jolly Joy
And so when I wake up on Christmas Morning
I hope my
stocking is empty
Because, Santa, I have all my family.
We Watch the
Carols on t.v together,
And get together to celebrate the
festivities
We even do the Christmas
tree together!
So, Santa, this year I hope That everyone remembers what Christmas is about.
Its not about presents or what Santa has brought,
Its about the most important thing of all.

Dear Santa,
Dear Santa,
There is lots of "stuff" I could ask for
but really, none of them mean a thing.
The newest electronics,
the shiny baubles,
none of them make my heart sing.
You see, the things I yearn for
don't need wrapping or bows
they can't be found in the shops or malls
but, they can make a heart glow.
I want to hear a fairy
bell
ring clear with crystal tone
vibrating
peace
to all who hear
so they don't feel alone.
I want hearts that are filled
with
gratitude to open to others and share
share food, share time
share a hug
show others that there's care.
I want everyone to plant a
tree
re-fill this earth with green
replenish the forests
replenish the planet
help Mother Earth to preen.
I want
families to come together
to realize their bond and their worth
care for one another
believe in one another
let no one feel a dearth.
I want all to
shine with
love and hope
to care for their fellow soul
reach out, touch hearts
join hands in love
let us all join in this goal.
So, Santa, the
gift I ask for
doesnt need the ribbons and bows
just help us to care about each other
and help the love to flow.

Dear Santa,
Dear Santa with your
jolly smile
I would like to request a favor for a little child
She knows you not, only the tales that are told
Of what you do in the sun
shine and the cold
She would
love to see a bright lit
Christmas Tree
With colored
Christmas Bells and stars that
shine
And tinsel sparkling the reflections of
love
Like the beauty of a soft
white dove
To have just one
stocking filled
With just a small
gift that will fore fill
Her
Christmas dream that she has never seen
Just so she knows that Santa has been
To show her that there is a magic in time
As she looks to the heavenly
Star so divine
That guided all to
Bethlehem to a new
baby child
Our savour born for all man kind
Dear Santa, I don't ever ask for much
But if you could do this one special thing
For only you - has that special magical touch
It would mean oh so very much
Thank you Santa
You know who I mean
