Twas days before Christmas
And all thru our yard
Shining lights were glistening
For all to enjoy near and far.
The shrubs were covered
With their blankets of lights
A tall Christmas tree
Illuminated the night.
Lighted presents were placed under the tree
For all our friends and neighbors to see.
A lighted little reindeer stood by its side
Guarding it all with holiday pride.
Then all of a sudden...
On a cold winter’s night...
Our little reindeer and a present
Disappeared out of sight.
How does one explain
To the child who helped put them there
Someone had taken
That which wasn’t theirs.
You teach them about caring and sharing
This time of year,
To love and to be loved
Because from the heart you truly care.
Christmas is over
You’ve enjoyed what wasn’t yours,
Please return to its home
Over on West Fourth.
If anyone has seen or knows of someone who might have these items, have them do the right thing and return them.
