When Santa stopped at Cassie's house
on that snowy Christmas Eve,
He stepped in something dropped by
Rudolph, I do believe.
His Santa boots were ruined, oh dear
it was a sight!
What would keep his Santa toes warm
the rest of this traveling night?

Well, Santa tip toed carefully
past Cassie as she slept.
Patted the top of her pretty head
as he stelthly crept.
In the corner of her room twas there
they caught his eye.
A pair of red suede boots that he
would have to try.

Now Santa has a tiny foot
and they fit the boots with ease.
He stood and looked into the mirror
"Ho Ho Ho", He whispered, pleased.
For now he could finish his journey
he really could not wait.
Santa wrote a note for Cassie
and left before he was late.

Dear Cassie, tho you have been naughty
along with being nice,
I've left you lots of presents
I hope they will entice
You to please forgive me
for your boots are a perfect fit
And I think with Mrs. Claus
they will be a great big hit.

With that there was a clatter
a clang and then a boom!
Cassie woke and felt like someone
had been inside her room.
She arose and was astounded
to find and read the note,
Laughing merrily
at what Santa Claus had wrote.

And thru the evening sky was heard
the jingle of a bell.
Cassie would have quite a story
that would be fun to tell.
Of the night Santa came calling
in need of something for his feet
and how in those red high heeled boots
Santa must look sweet!
