Matthew, age 6, came to the store.
Blind and autistic, his wish be
To meet Santa Claus, he hoped for.
And Santa got down on his knee,
Talking a long time with Matthew,
Letting him pull beard and feel hat,
And touch the eyes that "twinkle" do
From "The Night Before Christmas" that
Matthew had heard read to him, and
Now the words could become so real,
By letting Matthew understand
Santa Claus because he could feel.
The Santa Claus magic and joy
Was truly felt by one young boy.
