Are The Reindeer Poet: Rowena Bennett "Are the reindeer in the rain, dear?" Asked Mrs. Santa Claus. "No. I put them in the bard, dear, To dry their little paws." "Is the sleigh, sir, put away, sir, In the barn beside the deer?" "Yes, I'm going to get it ready To use again next year." And the pack, dear, is it back, dear?" "Yes. It's empty of its toys, And tomorrow I'll start filling it, For next year's girls and boys." White Fields Poet: James Stephens In the winter time we go Walking in the fields of snow; Where there is no grass at all; Where the top of every wall, Every fence and every tree, Is as white as white can be. Pointing out the way we came, - Every one of them the same - All across the fields there be Prints in silver filigree; And our mothers always know, By the footprints in the snow, Where it is the children go. A Ride With Santa Poet: Ovie Pedigo Tanner I wish that dear old Santa Would take me for a ride; I’d like to drive his reindeer And sit by Santa’s side.

Jingle, jingle, jingle, jingle, How the bells would ring! Christmas Poet: Judy K. Owen I like Christmas, for it brings lots of joy; Little children are happy over every Christmas toy. And on this night so long ago The angels sang on this wonderful night; And around them shone a holy light.

Putting on their pretty lights And decorations very bright. Christmas Poet: Iris Lane Franklin Christmas is for mistletoe, Evergreens, and holly; Christmas is for Santa Claus, Red and fat and jolly.

Song of Santa's Helper Poet: Ernestine Cobern Beyer I'm Jingle, the elf, I am glad to tell! I was born, they say, in a jingle bell! I' little and nimble and jolly, oh, And my cheeks are redder than holly, oh! I curry young Rudolph and rouge his nose; I shine the sleigh till it gleams and glows! I give rubber toys their jolly squeak, And tenderly color the dolly's cheek! When Santa sets off on his Christmas trip, I sit at his side, and I crack the whip Until he exclaims with a merry, "Whoa! Our first stop, please, is Ontario!" I'm Jingle, the elf! I am gay and spry! From toe to tassel, I'm two feet high! I work and I sing and I whistle, oh, And my heart is as merry as mistletoe!
