One Last Wish
 
Christmas tree still stands
Smelling of fresh cut pine.
The lights are still sparkling
Few needles on the ground.
 
Presents have been opened
Kids playing with their toys.
Santa granted their wishes
They were good girls and boys.
 
Grandpa’s on the couch
Snoring to a Christmas tune.
He’s all tuckered out
Grandma will join him soon.
 
Christmas came way too fast
Floor is littered with its joy.
Boxes, tissue and ribbons
Many wonderful toys.
 
Christmas tree still standing
Lights still sparkle and glisten.
Santa, grant me one last wish
I’ve been good, please listen.
 
“I wished it was still Christmas”
