The Night Before Christmas

Permanently Closed - Twas the night before Christmas, and Santa was frantic, He should by now be, above the Atlantic, But there he was, having not yet departed, Christmas was ruined, before it even started The reindeer were ready, no games today Their harnesses snug, and attached to the sleigh Which was loaded up full, filled with Christmas joy And set to deliver, every last toy. The only thing missing was Santa himself, for he was desperately searching, along with every elf. His magical garb, it had been locked away He’d done it himself, last Christmas Day. Since his gear was unique, forged with no impurity He’d gone overboard, on Santa security. But he was now distressed, for he couldn’t remember, How to solve the riddles, he’d devised last December. So now Santa needs you, the children do, too, There will be no presents, if you don’t come through Solve Santa’s riddles, and solve them right quick, And recover the gear, for good ol’ Saint Nick If not for the children, do it for yourselves Because if you can’t, you’ll stay here with the elves For nimbly slipped, under the door with finesse, Was your your ticket home, on the polar express So get to it now, restore Santa’s power Don’t waste a second, you have but one hour.
