As we Finish 2023...

‘Twas the week after Christmas

The elves took a rest

This holiday season

Was by far the best

We had charged through the year

Orders left and right

Til the very last moment

When the end was in sight

We had more elves this year

Yet we still felt the pinch

Of the rush to meet deadlines

(Without becoming a Grinch)

But the joy was so strong

Even our busiest days

We just kept skating through

In a glittery haze

Next week we’ll all gather

And chat and eat cake

To plan for the year

And new ornaments we’ll make

This past year was great

Even with a few panics

I’m sure that the next one

We’ll still be quite frantic

But what we make is pure magic

What we do is great fun

What we create makes sweet smiles

For everyone

As we finish this year

And we close the shop tight

We wish “Merry Christmas to all,

We’ll relax… for one night.”
