Merry Christmas to All and to All a Good Nap!

HO-HO-HO!  MERRY CHRISTMAS!

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house
Some creatures were stirring, but not the mouse.
All the children were nestled in their beds
With visions of presents running through their heads.

Mommy and Daddy in their frenzy did wrap
Hoping no child would awake from the flap.
Rolls of wrapping paper, scissors and tape
Were passed between them at a great rate.

Mommy wrapped while Daddy tagged
The puppy dog's tail she did wag
Getting in the middle with nose to ground
Looking for dropped cookie crumbs she found.

When to their wondering eyes did appear
Many presents all wrapped, the bill they did fear.
Soon placed under the tree, the presents were placed
A short winter's nap the parents they faced.

All too soon, the sun arose
And the children added more to this prose
For they awoke an hour too soon
Mommy and Daddy hoped they could sleep till noon.

It was time to see what Santa added
For the all the children were ecstatic!
All gathered in one child's room
For the first Christmas present, from whom?

The birth of Our Savior was given
From a loving Father in Heaven
The present he gave?
His Son with the power to save!

The simple phrase "Come Unto Him"
And repent of all your sin
Remember this refrain
So that we may live with him again!


I am not a poet by any stretch of the imagination, but I hope that all here in the Underground have a wonderful Christmas!
