Santa, I'Ve Been Nice

Whiteness falling whirling white swift volley
In the crisp hushed winter's cold bite degree
Nipping flakes light dark night body lolly

Gathers on glass pane quite liberally
Dusk begins to wane, relaxing white sea
Whiteness falling whirling white swift volley

I wake up with the halls deck with holly
Daze, dash down the halls, dive under the tree
Nipping flakes light dark night body lolly

Filled with light , I'm in heaven most jolly
I cheer on one knee, Christmas gifts for me
Whiteness falling whirling white swift volley

The dawn brought new-fallen snow. Oh! Golly!
Outside world cloak in white glitter to see
Nipping flakes light dark night body lolly

Hope Santa knows I've been nice, wishfully
There wouldn't be a single toy; yes siree 
Whiteness falling whirling white swift volley
Nipping flakes light dark night body lolly

Hi Eve. Now I learn about music in poetry. I can hear the Christmas song as I read your lovely villanelle. All the best, Tony

Rama, check into it, sounds good. Breathing exercise is always good for your lungs and bring air to your body. Thank you, I am doing much better, still have a ways to go. Hugs Eve
