"And though she be but little, she is fierce."- Shakespeare


I've only gotten one Christmas present

Seventeen years have passed and I haven't seen Santa

Never heard the jingling of a reindeer bell

A nice, old lady at the bread place

She gave me a Barbie doll

Clothed in green finesse and even a fur collar

Mother took it

My one Christmas gift

I long for pretty lights and giant trees

I want to hear the "Ho ho ho"

Menorahs on windowsills as I walk by

But it's December 9th

I don't think St. Nick is coming
