Christmas Wish
On Christmas Day
she’ll be waking up extra early
running down the stairs
to check under the tree
Hoping Santa left for her
that special gift of her desire --
she wrote and asked for a pet, you see
One that she would love and pamper
a pet who would keep her company
and stay ever faithfully by her side
She was hoping with all my heart
to find this year under the tree
a glamorous Siamese fighting fish
to call her own in all its splendor
