To be given toys on Christmas Day!
Oh! What Fun! I want to play!
I want a cuddly penguin and a little cow too!
With a scarf and a hat and a ribbon thats blue!
Pink or purple or white or gold!
Just give me something soft to hold!
To run up and down this big old house!
Louder than the loudest mouse!
Through the kitchen then the hall!
I just want to play with them all!
So for Christmas wont you say
That you'll give me something fun to play?!
A penguin and a cow!
Please, oh please tell me now!

Really Cute portrayal of a child's anticipation of Christmas morning---I enjoyed it

Thank you for entering
This reads as if a child had written. I feel safe in assuming that was your intent. Nice flow and structure. Very child like in the thoughts of what christmas would mean to them.
God Bless and Merry Christmas
