Story: 'Tis the night before Christmas, and all through the house,
Not a creature is stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings are hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon will be there.
The children are tucked in their beds, warm and deep,
While dreams of sweet candies arrive with their sleep.
Then out on the lawn there arises a clatter,
I spring to the window to see whatโs the matter!
With a sleigh full of toys and eight reindeer in flight,
St. Nick brings the magic of Christmas tonight.
He fills every stocking, then turns with a smile,
Having traveled for many a magical mile.
He leaps to his sleigh, to his team gives a call,
As the snow begins softly and gently to fall.
But I hear him exclaim, as he drives out of sight:
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"
