Lovely as always, Sandra. You have taken a fairy and joined it with Santa Claus and the birth of Christ. Not an easy feat but so beautifully done

Comment from justatuna
This is another wonderful write from you. Again, children's stories aren't my thing, but you really make them work. This was a joy. You're imagination is great. Meter right on. You're making me change my mind about writing like this. Just don't want to scare the kiddies:)

Comment from Cornetist
The true meaning of Christmas bears repeating often...the sad thing is that it HAS to be repeated so many times because so many people don't know (or don't care to know) it! Your poem repeats well that great story!

Thank you so much, Beth, I'm so pleased you liked it. Christmas is such a special time and we really mustn't let our children lose sight of what it really is for. Thank you, again!! xsx Sandra
Comment from lappmellott
I loved this poem. It would be a good choice for a teacher to read to her young students regarding Santa. I think it's well written. All too often, we forget the true meaning of Christmas. It's all about Christ!

Comment from MidnightWriter4U
Excellent poem for children on the true meaning of Christmas! So much commercialism today the real purpose of the holiday gets overlooked. I am so glad there are writers out there that still think it important to express this most important fact to children. Enjoyed!

This is fantastic, you are a great story teller. You should be a children's writer. It flowed perfectly and I was reading out aloud at times. Well done and keep it up. A great way to explain Christmas...LOL

I totally agree with you, miss cookie, I hope the parents will read it and take note! You know the stars, although lovely, would mean nothing without your lovely words. (did you know you gave me 8?

Hullo Sandramitchell ...
I enjoyed this poem of yours, written specially for children who are swamped with thoughts of presents instead of quietly contemplating the true meaning of Christmas.
There is nothing to suggest changing and I hope that many people will read these thought-provoking words of yours.
Love from .... Nanette Mary.
