A Gift To Santa

Note, titled "A Gift to Santa."

I Sent dear Santa Claus a note:
"Please bring me a sled." I wrote;
"I love you, Santa, yes I do,
"I'd like to make a gift to you,
But, oh, dear me, I cannot tell
The sort of present would please you well;
And so I send you only this:
A great big black, black, inky kiss."

-Virginia Baker

Found in "The Dupe" by Gerald Biss. Published by Greening and Co., 1907.
