Dec 2021
She was a very good little girl
Chores and school work done
Polite and listened
Respected her elders
Listened to all the Holiday stories
She quietly sat by the window and fell asleep waiting for the reindeer
and Santa
He never came
When school started again it is not what you think
Her teacher and friends asked what Santa brought her
She replied he doesn't come to my house
We have no chimney and no tree
We have a menorah and tops called dreidels
Back then it wasn't thought of
Adam *******'s Chanukah song was a hit for many for this reason
As was Chanukah Harry
Which is why some say Happy Holidays or Season Greetings
They don't know Christmas
They don't know Kwanza
They might not even celebrate Chanukah
Santa didn't arrive because they were not taught to believe in him
I believe in his magic and all that help him

With all die respect to those who celebrate the birth of Christ.
