Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

20121125-Cabin

The stockings were hung near the tree with care,
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.

20121202-Stockings

The brown dawgs were nestled all snug in their bed,
While visions of antler bones danced in their heads.

20121126-Freighter, Thunder, Storm 1
Storm in her ‘kerchief, Thunder and Freighter in their caps,
Had just settled down for a long winter’s nap.

20121210-Thunder, Storm, Freighter 2

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
They sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.

20121121-Freighter Sprang From His Bed
Away to the window they flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

20121202-Freighter At The Window

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the luster of mid-day to objects below.

20121208--New Fallen Snow 2
When, what to their wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer.

20081221-Christmas Cabin

With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
They knew in a moment it must be St Nick.

Forget the rest…

Hope St. Nick brings us something good!

Hope Santa Brings Us Something Good!
