THE STORY OF THE CHRISTMAS TREE ANGEL.

One Particular Christmas...

One particular Christmas, a long time ago,

Santa Claus was getting ready for his annual trip.

Alas, there were problems everywhere.

Four of his elves got sick, and the trainee elves,

Just weren't producing the toys as fast as the regular ones.

Poor Santa Claus,

Was beginning to feel the pressure of being behind schedule.

Then Mrs. Claus announced that her Mother was coming to visit.

This stressed Santa Claus even more.

When he went to harness the reindeer,

He found that three of them were pregnant and about to give birth,

And two had jumped the fence and were out, heaven knows where.

More stress! When he began to load the sleigh, one of the boards cracked,

And the toy bag fell to the ground scattering the toys everywhere.

Frustrated!

Santa went into the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum.

When he went to the cupboard,

He discovered that the elves had hidden the liquor,

and there was nothing to drink.

In his frustration!

He accidentally dropped the cider pot,

And it broke into hundreds of little pieces all over the kitchen floor.

He went to get the broom,

And found that mice had eaten the straw end of the broom.

Just then the doorbell rang, irritated Santa Claus trudged to the door.

He opened the door,

And there was a Beautiful Angel with a great big Christmas tree.

The Angel said, very cheerfully,

"Merry Christmas, Santa Claus. Isn't it a lovely day?

I have a beautiful tree for you.

Which part of the room would you like me to put it?"

And thus began the tradition,

Of the Beautiful Angel on top of the Christmas tree.

Merry Christmas

I hope your Beautiful Angel hovers over you,

Throughout the Christmas Yule Tide and Winter Soltice and keeps you safe.

May your Beautiful Angel radiate with eternal beauty, peace and love,
