• Darkness rains, flooding the city
    The stars come out of hiding
    Snow begins to blanket rooftops and sidewalks
    Jingle Bells ring through the streets
    sounds of carols and fires cracking
    drift through the alleys and roadways
    people gather, laughing and chatting
    friends and families join together,
    as the turkey is carved and eggnog is passed around
    gifts are exchanged and excitedly ripped open
    lovers kiss under the mistletoe while
    children stand with mouths wide open, hoping to taste the snow
    then when all food is eaten, and eggnog is drank,
    when fires die down and the first yawn is let out
    parents carry their children up to their beds
    so they can sleep and await the arrival of santa claus
    hooves are on the roofs, then away goes the sleigh
    the moon begins to fall, and the sun is welcomed
    it is finally Christmas Day
