Twas the night before Christmas And the moon was sitting high The kids were in bed, Kissed and snuggled in tight The gifts were all wrapped There was love in the air It only came once So it was handled with care The curtains were drawn The cookies were bit It was time to blow out All those candles we’d lit The kids would soon wake With laughter in their hearts We had a big day ahead And early it would start Laughter’s and squeals Jumps on the bed Screaming, “Get up”! “Get up! ” as they fled Wrappings and ribbons Thrown everywhere“ Oh, I love you Mom and Dad! ”Neither did spare Family arrives, Carolers sing Stories were told Of childhood memories This was true love True love was in the air And it only came once So it was handled with care Now the gifts have been opened And the food is all gone The songs were all sung And the guests have gone home It was time to get back To life’s normal things It was time to put away All that the holidays bring You'll go to your office She'll go to her room He'll reach for his game I guess I'll grab the broom Christmas had come And Christmas had went It only comes once a year But it is time well spent .NZuri Za Austin
