Dedicated to all the wonderful men who grace the malls and schools, and businesses, who give of their time to bring joy to the children, and smiles to the adults…I say Thank you 🙂


Twas the night before Christmas
The place was in tatters
Ribbons and wrappings
And empty cookie platters

With no time to waste
I had to move fast
The children were waiting
With lists in their grasps

I threw on my long johns
And fastened the flap
I hope I can get out of these things
In a snap!

With my belly all stuffed
And my white fluffy beard
Donned my red woolen coat
Wrapped in holiday cheer

Little eyes glowing, pure and simple, with glee
When they came and they sat upon my bended knee
The excitement I saw, was worthy of bliss
When they jumped off my lap, and blew me a kiss

Oh! What joy it brings to my heart
Making sure all was merry and bright
With my sack fully packed
And the sleigh on its way
Merry Christmas to all
And to all a good night!

They followed an effervescent star

Not really knowing, how near nor how far

Three wise kings, their journey to find

The reason this light shined, on all of mankind

For in a manager, in Bethlehem, a son

Yes, He was anointed, the blessed one

Born of the virgin, Mary, he became

The one, our Savior, Jesus was his name

They found him, nestled, in a crib of hay

Laid gifts for new born, on this Christmas Day

Rejoice in Him, the season, of joy and of love

As He smiles down upon us, from His kingdom above

For life has given me joy

In abundant love
