Santa's Nap

Santa’s Nap It was the night before Christmas And old Santa was beat. He had worked day and night and had schedules to meet. So he sat in his chair For a short little nap, Then rubbed his eyes and took off his cap. Then visions of toys as he started to snore, Drum sets and wagons And toy trains galore, Danced in his dreams As he lay there to rest. There were dolls and trucks Sleds and wagons; the best! Then he heard his reindeer Playing in the snow, As he stretched and yawned He knew it was time to go. He had slept all night through Till Mrs. Claus woke him there And gave him hot chocolate With marshmallows to spare. Then off to his workshop Santa did go And the elves were all there; They just seemed to know That today was the day That they worked for all year. They cherished this day And their Santa so dear. So off they all went To deliver the toys And bring smiles to the faces Of little girls and boys!
