A Child's Story

 

I woke with a start
In the still of the night
Somebody from the chimney
Had appeared in sight.

 

 
 
 
 


 
With an eager feeling
Of happiness and anticipation
I knew him to be Santa
Coming to give me presents.

 

 

 

 

 

I dreamed of toy cars
And of toy guns  and chocolate bars .
Surely Santa would bring me these
Santa will you , please ?

 

 
 
 
  
 
 
 .
I opened my eyes
And stared through the gloom
Strangely I did not see anything
Only the walls of my room !

 

It's really most distressing
No presents  from the chimney down .
I would  not feel so eager
Next time Santa came around !
