Ho Ho Ho

It was the night before Christmas in winter fairy land Where elves were busy giving Santa Claus a hand Making all the toys for boys and girls As snowflakes danced in pirouettes and swirls Frosty the snowman was dancing as well To the wonderful sounds of those jingle bells Then Santa loaded his sled to destinations anew Sleigh bells ringing, as away he flew Children were helping with Christmas tree trimming With nervous anticipation they all were brimming Waiting for toys that Santa was bringing And carolers outside were happily singing They drifted off to sleep, and their dreams began But were awakened by the laughter of a jolly old man Then they heard him shout, much to their delight "Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!"
