'twas the Night Before Christmas

With Christmas carols softly playing By the fireplace we sing along And snow flakes in the cold wind swirling While winter sings its' chilly song The scenery turns to a blanket of white As St. Nick rides by on his sleigh And children behaving just right In hopes he comes their way People filling up on eggnog And kids in the snow at play And the flames of the crackling logs Warm the heart on the eve of Christmas day
