For Goodness Sake

 

Where north can go no further at the world’s tipsiest top.
A land of ice and snow conceals the home of Santa’s shop.
With Santa and his wife are his reindeer and the elves.
Stocking toys they made all year in boxes and on shelves.
Known to all is Santa’s list that names every girl and boy.
And tells of there heart’s desire found in every special toy.
How the list is made has been a secret until now.
A child’s note is always used but this is really how.
As children lie snug in there beds so peacefully asleep.
Tiny fairies fly close to them daring not a single peep.
While they dream the fairies know is where a wish will slip.
They listen for the whispers from the babes own sleeping lips.
Once it’s told right away the wish goes on the list.
An elf then quickly makes it so the present isn’t missed.
At Christmas Eve when the present’s brought comes the fairy too.
Poor Santa can’t slide down the chimneys of houses that are new.
Where Santa can’t get in the fairy is there to help him out.
As she flies through furnace stacks and duct work all about.
Once let in he lays the gifts under the Christmas tree.
Sharing milk and cookie snacks is Santa and the small fairy.
So this is why you should have good thoughts always in your head.
For that night when tiny ears may visit you in bed.
