Twas the Night Before Christmas 🎅 🍎 🎁 Updated 12-24-2020
‘‘Twas the night before Christmas,
When through field and wood
Not a creature was stirring
All quiet and good c920.
Baskets were placed
By the market with care
In hopes that St. Nicholas
Soon would be there.
The farm crew were nestled
All snug in their beds,
While visions of a Covid-less new year
Danced in their heads one hand clapping 다운로드.
For they were most tired
From sowing, weeding, and growing the best
And surely in need
Of a long winter’s rest Download the Bethlehem Bible for Mac.
When out on the farm
Arose such a clatter
We quickly went to see
What was the matter.
Away to the buildings
We checked one by one
And finding nothing amiss
We were done previous version of office.
The moon on the breast
Of the new fallen snow
Gave a luster of midday
To objects below.
And what did appear?
Oh my, could it be?
A herd of reindeer
And a sleigh we could see.
And someone else
So lively and quick
We knew in a moment
It must be St. Nick.
More rapid than bunnies
Under a fence
St. Nicholas came
To the market’s entrance
And then in a twinkling
We heard a new sound
And turning our heads
St. Nick came in with a bound.
He was dressed in red Carhartt’s
From his head to his toes
And he wore a Covid mask
Over his mouth and his nose.
Something large was flung
Over his back
And we wondered
Is he carrying one of our apple packs??
His eyes how they twinkled
Above his mask
And he set about
Doing his task.
He ate just-baked cookies
Left for his treat
And some crumbs drifted
Down to his feet.
He spoke not a word
But went straight to his work
And filled all the baskets
Then turned with a jerk.
We could see new overalls
And caps and work gloves galore
And we just knew
We could not ask for more.
For to have this great farm
We count as our treasure
The work is demanding
A toil and pleasure.
What we love most,
Is sharing the bounty with all
Especially this year
We just felt that call
St. Nick turned to leave
We just had to smile
We all felt good
Knowing this year, we had gone the extra mile
And our customers did too
Supporting the farm in so many ways
Despite the 2020 challenges
They always made our days!
We heard him exclaim
As he cleared Corey Lake
Merry Christmas to all
And enjoy a great holiday break!
From everyone at Corey Lake Orchards, Happy Winter and Happy New Year!
