EVERY YEAR WITHOUT FAIL - FROSTY

 

Every year without fail

On Christmas Eve

It would appear

And we children

Would squeal out

A deafening cheer

 

When the source

Of our excitement

Was carefully set down

And we would sit

In our clean pyjama’s

And dressing gown

 

And stare at the object

Open mouthed

In gleeful expectation

Of what was beneath

The cotton wool and

Crepe paper creation

 

We would have to wait

The longest time

In anticipation

But it was worth it

Too see inside the belly

Of Frosty’s incarnation

 

And when we thought

We could wait no longer

We all jumped to our feet

As Dad slowly removed

The carrot faced head

And revealed the treats

And as Dad gave Frosty

A little shake, out spilled

The Christmas sweets
