One Froggy Christmas Eve
A Frog went a-courtin' one Christmas Eve Arms full of flowers for his latest squeeze She is a sweet tiny mouse who's named Jane And lives in a tree house down Mouse-Hole Lane. He held her tight beneath wintry moonlight But then it snowed mercilessly that night Jane got buried in snow, Frog went berserk Waiting for his dear sweetheart to emerge. Frog croaked all night, such a pitiful sight Wondering why for him nothing goes right Then bells from afar brought hope to his heart ‘Twas Santa arriving on the sleigh cart. Santa came trudging along though the snow With his troop of reindeer helpers in tow "What's up Frog" Santa Clause clothed in red said "My girlfriend Jane is under snow lain dead." Santa chose Rudolph the strongest reindeer To start digging carefully around here Rudolph stood proudly puffing out his chest Pleased to be asked, assuredly said “yes.” Rudolph used his red-nose to dig up snow A faint little voice squeaked "hello, hello” It was mouse Jane, she’d come alive again Making Christmas merry down Mouse-Hole Lane.

Thank you Tom, when there’s time, if ever, I intend to get the jingles together for kids to read... Belle

Sounds like an hole-in-one to me (or is that holy one, or holey one?). Aloha! Rico

Ha Rico, I would say if one lies under the snow it’s holey, but to get out and survive like Jane - then it’s got to be holy. Thanks... Belle
