Notes About The Poem

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.....Ho ho ho

Before Christmas Night

As Rudolph practices flying, to lead for Santa's ride 
Santa sits and watches him...with Donner by his side 
Prancer's in the back round, head down and eating snow 
To fill his belly and ready himself...when Santa says "let's go"
 
Dasher and Dancer and Comet and Cupid
Are in the fields, resting in the whey 
While Vixen and Blitzen are at Santa's house
Shining up...Santa's sleigh
 
For a thousand years he's made that trip 
With his red and white colored robe 
The same old boots, the same reindeer sleighing
On his journeys...around the globe
 
He always sits in the same old place 
Before it's time to leave 
On the park bench at Christmas time 
On the morning...of Christmas eve

Jennifer Proxenos November 25, 2018 at 1:13 AM A Lovely Christmas poem which excites both the young and the old in preparation for the festive season. Hope Santa gives his reindeer snacks along the way, they must get exhausted! Kind regards, Jennifer. Charles Messina November 25, 2018 at 8:52 AM Thank you, Jennifer! He probably had a sack full of reinsens to feed them along the way (lol) Thanks for your visit, much appreciated! Regards, Charlie

Caren Krutsinger November 24, 2018 at 8:21 AM Outstanding that you remembered the reindeer's names. I only remembered two of them. Google! Slap my Santa's hat and call me Silly. I wish I had thought of that. Good luck in the contest, Charles. Charles Messina November 25, 2018 at 8:56 AM Yes, Google is a beautiful thing..lol Thank you, Caren.
