Christmas

My favorite time is almost here                      

With elves, Santa and Reindeer

The time you put up Christmas trees

And put out carrots and cookies

Down falls the frigid snow

Up goes the missile toe

Ornaments hung silver and gold

Through the night of freezing cold

When your mind begins to doze

And your eyes begin to close

Santa will come at midnight

To bring toys and games of all types

When the sun begins to rise

You run to the tree to claim your prize
