Moore, Suess, and Morrish

A little Christmas cheer combining C.C. Moore, Dr. Seuss, and L.M. Morrish.

'Twas the night past Thanksgiving and all through the city,

All the creatures were stirring, even the mice.

People were standing in lines round the store,

Indoors and outdoors,

Hoping to find gifts for cheap,

To fill their stockings and Christmas trees.

Amidst all the hustle and bustle

Were two best friends on a mission to find the best deals they could.

They sped round the stores from midnight to six,

Then hurried home for some much needed sleep.

'Fore hitting the stores with a vengeance once more.

When at last they had finished

The sun had risen and set.

Their bellies were empty, but the car was quite full

With treasures and deals they'd found 'long the way.

Quite successful, the trip, and bunches of fun!

But what did they find? What deals? What prizes?

Don't be silly! Don't ask such a thing!

Don't you know that Christmas will be here in no time!

You'll see soon enough when that blessed day comes.
