Poem
The elves had been loading Santa’s sleigh for the night. The reindeer were all prancing about, with delight. With Santa aboard, a loud, “Ho-Ho”, did ring; on the crispy, cold air, as the sleigh left with a “zing”. Their forms, they were lit, by the nightlight moon; old Santa would be delivering soon. At the first house, he came down the chimney just right; “Clearly”, he said, “this will be a good night”! The cookies and milk, so refreshing, they’d be; as he gobbled them down, with such hearty glee. On and on, he continued; delivering his gifts. The sleigh a bit lighter, the reindeer, did lift. As an airliner so swiftly, came crossing their path; The faces inside, took a big, second glance. Santa waved, they waved back; from up above the trees. The trees seemed to bow, as he passed, with a breeze. With each reindeer, he shared, his cookies, you see; the fuel for his journey, would always be free. Round the world, he did travel and all in one night. Every creature on earth was thrilled by the sight. To the squirrels, he brought nuts and cheese to the mice. Koala’s got eucalyptus and horses, blankets, so nice. Not one soul, did he miss; though he dodged a few drones. Santa made his deliveries and then headed home. Mrs. Claus had hot cider; a warm meal, at the ready. Santa arrived with a yawn; his eyelids, so heavy. Unhitching his sleigh, the elves bid him, good-night and the reindeer, bedded down, in the barn, for the night. Santa ate well and slept a very deep sleep; Tomorrow would bring many orders, you see… For the next big delivery, would take a full year; each Christmas, came faster, it seemed, than his reindeer. For a man in his hundreds, old Santa was spry. To please every child, in the world, he would try. As the elves took the orders, for the next Christmas season; the Clauses vacationed, in the warm Caribbean.
