[SIZE=12pt] TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]Twas the night before Christmas and the presents were ready[/SIZE]

Santa was setting alone in his study

When in walks Rudolph with news that would shatter

The night like a knife and cause such a clatter

Oh Santa said Rudolph what are we to do

You see all the reindeer have come down with the flu

The whole team is couging and their noses are red,

They just lay in the stable and are holding their heads

Oh goodness said Santa I need my team well,

Call all the elves, Rudolph go ring the big bell

We need some ideas to get the sleigh flying

Children are waiting we can't leave them crying

With the elves in a meeting and everyone talking

All of a sudden they heard someone knocking

Then banging and clanging and then a small whinny

Then they heard hooves pawing way up by the chimney

They all hurried over and threw open the door,

It's so nice to meet you have we met before?

For standing so proud all harnessed up

Was a small little horse so full of himself

We're here to help you. We'll pull your sleigh

Just give us some apples, carrots and hay

We've all talked it over and we'll get you thru

This special night with all you must do

We have the time to come down from the ridge,

We spend our days playing on the Rainbow Bridge

We miss the children, the laughter and hugs

The sweet little faces, and even their tugs

Don't you see Santa we have earned our wings

Now we can use them for wonderful things

We will fly over the rooftops and paw in the snow

We will take you where ever your gifts need to go

See Santa Blue Boy is doing his prance

Oh Santa please won't you give us this chance

So off they all flew pulling that beautiful sleigh

All laughing and snorting, having fun on the way

So when you think you hear hoofbeats so tiny and quick

Some laughter and whinnys it could be St Nick

With his new team of minis who have found their own way

To say Merry Christmas and have a GREAT DAY!

Oh wow....I LOVED it! What a unique picture you drew of the mini's coming from the Rainbow Bridge to pull Santa's sleigh. Great job!!!
 
Thank you all I'm glad you enjoy it.

Dreaminmini if I could draw I would illustrate it. But stick horses pulling a blob wouldn't look that good. And what I would do to Santa Claus would be a great sin.

I can see it in my head but putting it on paper is another story.

Merry Christmas
