I Am Santa Claus

I Am Santa Claus I am the wise men bearing thoughtful gifts, Whether reindeer, camel, both with His star. Drove by that spirit who wants to give joy, From North to South and all places afar. The same Spirit prompted St. Nicholas, too, To fill the needs of all children and poor. Though red and white fluffy belly am I, Someone whispers to me from door to door. When you are touched with warmth to share yourself, When you want to make happy someone else, With gifts and smiles and songs of the Christ Child, Stop, be still, listen to His peace a while. Remember the stuff of which I am made, Peace, joy, love, kindness, gentleness always.
