The Elves Save Christmas

Santa's sled now sits on Little Suzie's rooftop

Where he gathers the toys for this his last drop

The good boys and girls' lists have almost been filled

None of the presents having been lost or yet spilled

Now all Santa has to do is dig through his bag

To find Suzie's doll, but instead there's a snag

There's no doll to be found, although there are five toy trains

So to check over his list he throws down the reins

But the reindeers, now tired and confused, start to fly away

And in the haste and confusion poor Santa falls into the sleigh

Empty bags and stray presents are thrown this way and that

As Santa bounces around until losing his boots and his hat

There's much confusion and bruising before the elves come up with a plan

Grabbing both reins, they finally rescue the poor unfortunate man

Locate his boots and his hat, and even a lost doll from under the seat

With Santa's hat back on his head and boots snug on his feet

Christmas has at last been saved by Santa's trustworthy team

So, Merry Christmas, dear children, may you all have sweet holiday dreams!
