Twas Three Days Before Christmas

Twas three days before Christmas

And all through the house

The furnace was humming

And so was my spouse

I am wrapped and toasty

In my warm fluffy robe

While the precipitation floats down

like inside a snow globe

My chicks are all home

And tucked into my nest

At last I can relax

And put my worries to rest

The gifts are all wrapped

And tucked under the tree

My cards are all sent

And I am full of glee

The cookies are baked

And I went way too far

Fifty dozen in all

They won't fit in my jar

The advent readings

have been written with care

Christmas eve service is coming

Not sure what I'll wear

The children at church

Are ready to sing

They have practiced hard

and will let their voices ring

Today I make goodies

to give our church family

Each year I enjoy this

And do it so happily

My prayer for you

Three days before Christmas

Is the gift of our Lord

Brings your soul full of His richness

Have a Merry Christmas!
