Christmas 2005

Every year we send an original Christmas card, composed by Barbara Fasy, to all our friends, family and clients - hope you enjoy it too *

2005

‘Twas the night before Christmas, we were nowhere near done

The tree wasn’t trimmed nor the stockings hung

Still had presents to wrap and cookies to bake

This had to be done before all were awake

Lights, balls and tinsel were stacked by the tree

Hoping to get to them eventually

When out of the blue there arose such a sound

We were almost afraid to turn around

And what to my wondering eyes did I see

But Santa Clause smiling kindly at me

He was dressed all in red – a fat, jolly, old elf

But he had not come just by himself

Elves were scurrying all around the tree

Some in the kitchen, some around me

What surprised me most was the absence of toys

That Santa carries for good girls and boys

Santa explained that he had some moments to spare

To help good friends in lands everywhere

So before he leaves on his journey at night

He helps them out in their “not finished” plight

To his nose gave a twitch - to his eye gave a wink

The elves did their work before I could blink

The tree was decorated with ornaments galore

There were stockings hung and a wreath on the door

The cookies were cooling in neat little rows

And the gifts were all wrapped with shiny red bows

The room was sparkling with nothing amiss

Never before had it looked quite like this

To his elves, Santa called, with a nod of his head

And as quick as they came, they had left instead

But before he left, Santa asked us to convey

His warmest wishes on this Christmas day

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!
