~*~My First Sleigh Ride~*~
The day before Christmas there was an elf.
Dancing around making me nervous myself.
I was at the Pole to visit Santa you see,
I was to take my first sleigh ride that Christmas Eve.
But ole Santa is pacing across the floor.
Somthing I know, I had never seen before.
"What on earth is happening here?"
I yelled in my deepest voice!!!
"You people are driving me up the walls?
Whats going on here Santa Clause?"
I was amazed when he was lost for words.
He gave me a look and started to pace,
"What is going on?" I asked the elf.
"Oh my, Oh me," he started say,
as he turned and walked away.
Then he stopped and said to my face,
"It's Mrs. Clause," and he left in haste.
I looked at Santa as he paced,
A look of concern upon his face.
"Oh Santa please tell me now!!!
Whats wrong with Mrs. Clause?"
As I muttered those few words.
The elf came running in again.
He slipped over the toys in the way,
That were suspose to be loaded upon the sleigh.
"Oh my, oh me," he began to say,
"Santa come here forget the sleigh."
Santa was so quick as he hurried past me,
He knocked me on my butt slick as can be.
So I grabbed the elf all in a huff,
I screamed and I shouted, "now whats the rush????
Whats wrong with Mrs. Clause what is the matter?
The little elf yelled, "come and see!
You've got to see this or you just won't believe."
I walked over quickly as I could to the door
and saw Santa standing by Mrs. Clause.
"Oh my, oh me, what do I see?
Not one little bundle but three."
One in Mrs. Clauses arms, and now, two on Santa's knees
I rub my eyes as I look again.
This I can not believe.
I quietly walked into the room.
To a sight of pure amazement.
As I looked upon each little face,
I know no angel could take it's place.
For there was a bit of heaven in each.
A sight so wonderful it could not be beat.
I picked up a child from Santa's knee,
and looked again at the group of three.
"What will you name them?" I asked the twosome.
With a twinkle in their eyes and a smile on their face.
The couple began to tell me their names.
In order of birth from one to three,
This is the way it was told to me.
By the Grace of God, Gracie showed up,
All soft and sweet like a butter cup.
Then came Joy so heavenly sweet
The precious bundle upon my knee.
I looked at Santa and the child on his knee
and said, "but Santa, who can this be?"
Santa looked down with pride,
To the bundle upon his knee.
and said, "this is my fist born son.
Kriss Kringle is the name of this one."
Just then the clock in the hall struck twelve.
Mrs Clause said, "Santa you must go.
It's Christmas day and the kids will be sad,
If there's no stockings and toys to be had."
We laid the babies with Mrs. Clause ,
Off to the sled we went with a cause.
We piled the toys up mountain high,
got on the sleigh, and waved good bye.
We made many stops that day
and all the children had toys to play.
As we stopped again at Santa's house
He picked up the bag, he thought was empty himself.
We heard a jingle from within.
He looked inside and started to grin,
and much to our surprise,
Three golden rattles laying side by side,
One for each child born to to the Clause's that eve.
Santa's little pride and joys.
Two little girls and one little boy.
Got their very first Christmas toys.
What a Merry Christmas this has become,
Two little daughters and one little son.
A happy mommy and daddy proud as can be.
and me, and my very first sleigh ride on Christmas Eve.
