The day Santa came

We waited for Santa and Santa came.

He brought presents and cheers and we welcomed his stay.

There was no shouting and no pain, just a quiet winter day.

We missed Santa when he left and all the chaos stayed.

The gifts unwrapped collected dust in the shelves.

We wished for him back, promised we’d never tell

We knew pop’s secret and it brightened our way

But we’d never tell for fear he’d stray

We grew old and tired and our pop died away.

But we never forgot the day as Santa he came.
