The Christmas Fairy
I am the Christmas Fairy, 
and everything I see, 
With wand and crown, 
As I look down, 
From the top branch of the tree! 

I see the pretty colored lights, 
The cards hung on the wall, 
Candies and sweets, 
And Christmas-time treats 
For visitors, when they call. 

I hear the Christmas carols, too, 
Out in the frosty air. 
And, on the roofs, 
The tap-tap of hooves - 
Whoever can be there? 

What fun on Christmas morning! 
I'll remember all I saw, 
When I'm put away 
Until the day 
I'm on the tree, once more.

use it to make things complete so here at the end let us
repeat what's said as he drove out of sight "Merry 
Christmas to All and to All a Good Night!". 



'Twas the Night Before Christmas
'Twas the night before Christmas,
He lived all alone,
In a one-bedroom house made of
Plaster and stone.

I has come down the chimney
With presents to give,
And to see just who
In this home did live.

I looked all about,
A strange sight did I see,
No tinsel, no presents,
Not even a tree.

No stockings by mantle,
Just boots filled with sand,
On the wall hung pictures 
Of far distant lands.

With medals and badges,
Awards of all kinds,
A sober thought
Came through my mind..

For this house was different
It was dark and dreary,
I found the home of a soldier,
Once I could see clearly.

The soldier lay sleeping, 
Silent, alone, 
Curled up on the floor,
In this one-bedroom home.

The face was so gentle, 
The room in such disorder, 
Not how I pictured 
A United States Soldier.

Was this the hero 
Of whom I'd just read? 
Curled up on a poncho, 
The floor for a bed? 

I realized the families 
That I saw this night,
Owed their lives to these soldiers 
Who were willing to fight. 

Soon 'round the world, 
The children would play, 
And grownups would celebrate 
A bright Christmas Day.

They all enjoyed freedom 
Each month of the year,
Because of the soldiers, 
Like the one lying here. 

I couldn't help wonder, 
How many lay alone, 
On a cold Christmas Eve 
In a land far from home. 

The very thought 
Brought a tear to my eye, 
I dropped to my knees 
And started to cry.  

The soldier awakened 
And I heard a rough voice, 
"Santa, don't cry, 
This life is my choice;

I fight for freedom, 
I don't ask for more, 
My life is My God,
My Country,  My Corps."

The soldier rolled over 
And drifted to sleep, 
I couldn't control it, 
I continued to weep. 

I kept watch for hours, 
So silent and still, 
And we both shivered 
From the cold night's chill. 

I didn't want to leave 
On that cold, dark night,
This guardian of honor 
So willing to fight. 

Then the soldier rolled over, 
With a voice soft and pure, 
Whispered, "Carry on Santa, 
It's Christmas Day, all is secure." 

One look at my watch, 
And I knew he was right 
"MERRY CHRISTMAS MY FRIEND,
AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!"
