The party started
The doorbell rings
Plenty of food
And plenty to drink
The house is full now
With all loved ones
Laughter's growing
All are having fun

Coffee's brewing
A warm bathrobe
Children waking
Eager to unfold
What Santa's left them
Under the tree
Faces glowing
Magical mystery

Thinking of others before themselves
