Twas the night before ... morning ...
And all through the house
Not a creature was stirring
Not even a mouse.
My parents were nestled
All snug in their beds
With pre-Christmas panic
Nightmare-ing their heads.
But with me in my PJs
And warm stockinged feet,
Downstairs I had crept
To prepare them a treat
In the warm Christmaslight*
I hung flake after flake,
A snow paper delight.
*Christmaslight - n - Here defined as any light, glow, or reflection caused by objects relating to or in association with the celebration of winter holidays, namely Christmas. ex: candles, Christmas tree lights, roaring fires, the hazy glow from a streetlight partially obscured by falling snow or ice
