Dear Santa, Hi! It’s Isabelle.
Hope your season’s full of cheer.
Mine’s been swell, and I’ve done well
to be real good this year!

I helped my mommy decorate
--- Santa, she nearly cried.
I baked her some treats, a tray full of sweets,
and brought buckets of snow right inside!

And when she said pick up your toys,
I pushed them 'neath my bed.
Though not quite done playing, my big heart was saying
make others feel happy instead.

And tonight I did the dishes,
My raisin hands you should have seen!
So I put that plate by the doggy gate
and Spot licked it up real clean.

So as you can see I’m doing my part
to spread some holiday cheer,
but for all that I churn, I ask less in return
on my humble list this year.

Just a sweet, warm cup of cocoa
and a simple hug will do
that’s all I need, I have no greed,
And here's even what I’ll do for YOU!

The workshop must be crowded
with the gifts you cannot give
to bad girls and boys--- those poor little toys!
They surely need somewhere to live!

Sooo...

If you have a rocking horse,
A princess crown, a scarf, of course,
A doll that walks, a doll that cries,
A doll that bakes me cherry pies,
A wishing well, a bubble show,
A net to catch a U.F.O.,
A dog, a cat, a duck that’s green,
A ball and bat, a time machine,
A homework elf, a candy store,
A shooting star, a spinning floor,
A reindeer and a pirate ship,
A choco-liscious chocolate chip,
Oh and I just 'bout forgot,
A bracelet like what mommy's got....

It really wouldn’t bother me
to find these gifts beneath my tree.

I’m hoping Christmas finds you well,
with love, your humble Isabelle.
