The Eve

I could hear the bell jingle
The sweet melodies from the choir
I could feel the warmth of the season
The smiles, the joy on the face of every human

I could see the glimming light on trees
Children dressed on their best wear
Ladies looking too hot to hold
Men locking lips with green bottles
Tearing the laps of innocent chickens
Slaying the throat of any animal that passed
Merrying and drowning their sorrows on keg

The fiery sun calmed his rage
The sky paved way for lumination
The gloomy weather found it's peace
All for the love of the Yuletide
