Dashing, Ole' St Nick

I've edited this poem several times,
and I wouldn't say I like doing that.
 
The writing and crafting of a poem!
 
Best of Wishes,
William
============================
Happy New Year, 2023, Everyone!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
I'm sending my love, 
And here's a hug too
Wishing nothing but
The absolute best for you. 

With love and esteem, 
We shall find our way
Hoping, and waiting for Ole' St Nick
Come and let's go play!

There's rumbling up on the rooftop,
And, the clatter was loud
Can someone, please, go up there
And have a look around.

We, nestled in our beds, 
Dreaming of our dreams
Sleep, my precious angels
Under the moonlight's beam. 

Ole' St Nick was cloaked, waiting patiently,
Then with this twinkle of his nose, he gave
You can see Ole' St Nick out there
Dashing across the nites sky; he raves! 

He'll be ringing, and singing, 
With glee in his voice, he shouts
A Merry Christmas to All
On, Dasher, on Dancer, on Prancer, and Vixen. 

And to All,
Ho, Ho-Ho!
On, Comet, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen.
To the North Pole, Rudolph!

A Good Nite! 

To: John Darnell & Deb Kellison

In fact, I do get embarrassed when I do this too, but I've made minor changes to the poem. Not a good practice to get into! This version is better, I think. Best of Wishes, William

Hello, Jeanette! Happy Holidays! Thank you. However, Jeanette, I had just seen this, but where it reads: `The clatter 'is' loud. "Should read; "The clatter 'was' loud." Whoops, Haha! I do appreciate you taking the time to visit and comment. I love it when people visit. Happy New Year! Best of Wishes, William
