Santa,
I've always tried
to be less naughty
more nice,
finish prayers
before asleep I fall,
hold my tongue
knowing I'm right.
So before you check
twice your list
please ponder
the above.
It also wouldn't hurt
to consider
you've never had
a rival
and that I'm feeling
quite entrepreneurial.

Oh, this is marvelous!

I always seem to drift off to sleep in middle of prayers. Cute pic, too.
"Quite entrepreneurial"!! I love it. And cuter than the jolly old elf, too.

I like how you employed the reverse order wording in your poem,(not sure what that's called...I knew once), it makes it unique sounding. Fun poem and great picture...such bright eyes!! :)
Ha ha! How wonderful for you to have the Christmas spirit alive and well to share in your family. Nicely written in a unique POV.
Margaret, she is absolutely precious, and what beautiful words!
Wishing you a fantastic weekend.
P.S. So enjoying your photos on Instagram!!
Very fun and the photo is perfect with it! Happy Holidays.
Got a chuckle out of the little twist at the end. :)
What a grin this gave me. Cleverly done Margaret. Genius even.
This made me laugh! It's great to be entrepreneurial!
This made me smile! Yes, to stay awake through prayers is quite a trick.
Love the photograph. This made me smile..
Good plan! Open Santa to free-enterprise and competition! But be careful, Fed-Ex is waiting in the wings.
Ha! I really love the little twist of wit at the end.
A perfect competitor for sure :-)
the end definitely had me laughing. I wonder what santas reply would look like.
I definitely think there's room for some free market competition here, Margaret.
Yes! Yes! Girl Power!!
Well done and I love your wit ;D
Your daughter looks so cute~
entrepreneurial? yay!
What an adorable little Santa lady. Cute poem.
HA! A little bit of competition never hurts if you're not getting your own way! :D
