T'was The Day Before Christmas Break


By Karis Regamey


T'was the day before Christmas break and all through the Village,
The staff were a-bustling closing down houses

The school kids gone, the final event over
Are signs of the imminent winter break closure

The fires extinguished, the artifacts covered,
waiting until next season to be rediscovered

The Village will soon lie as still as a photo
Nostalgic and beautiful with sparkling snow

With preparations for next year well underway
The countdown begins until opening day

So as we close up for Christmas and drive down the driveway
We say Merry Christmas and have a wonderful holiday!
