A Christmas Wish
Margarita with basket was very happy
The churches small creche kept her busy
She smiled putting all figures in
All except the three wise men
and their camels of course
Must wait After Christmas
When they visit baby Jesus
She turned and was startled to find
La Doc and a small girl standing behind
He apologized and made a heartfelt request
His voice soft but stressed
"This poor girl Jane, was found alone and hurt
By Billy out in the desert
She's no longer weak
But still refuses to speak
No parents or family
Have been found unfortunately
There's been talk that you are going to help lost children
Just wondering
Can you take her under your wing?"
"Of course senior say no more."
The doctor thanked her then adios out the door
Margarita noticed the girl staring strongly
At a camel in her basket strangely
"Jane you like da camel
Por favor take it. Si.
It's ok ju mind it for me,
now how about milk and un cookie"
Margarita smiling
Camel gladly handing
Camel taking
Jane saying
nothing
Secretly wishing.
