It’s December
it’s winter
it might snow
Let’s see a little magic
It’s December
it’s winter
I hope it snows
I want to hit the stage, be Houdini
and make some magic
It’s December
it’s winter
when it snows
I will write about it
and become magic, word by word
Daily Post Prompt: Protest
Mrs Claus Below The Stars
Mrs Claus
watches Santa Claus
fly away in his magic sleigh

wondered if Santa Claus

wrapped in magic and dreams and hope
Mrs Claus
always wonders how Santa Claus
can fly to the stars
and leave her stranded below
for that wonderful night
alone.

” Like scalpels or …”
” I have those. I have those coming out of my ears. I want new knives for the kitchen.”
” Oh Anita. You’re so funny.”
The Shrunken Heads showed up that year- but I did not find a single knife- and by Santa’s Beard I needed them.
This year though I have a tall order:
