A Nuletide Request,

Kris Kringle, Yuletide saint so bless'd,
Your help am l entreating.
Pray take to her whom love best
Ny heart, with Christmas greetingi
For months I've cast it at her feet
With carelessness most shocking.
Think you she'd deem it indiscreet
To find it in her stocking?
Pray do this, and my thanks you'll earn.
Next year, when you come shedding,
Perchance the favor I'll return
And ask you to our wedding.
