MERRY XMAS
PADRE NAVIDAD
Twas the night before Christmas and all through the casa, Not a creature was
stirring -- Caramba! Que pasa? Los ninos were tucked away in their camas, Some
in long underwear, some in pijamas, While hanging the stockings with mucho
cuidado In hopes that old Santa would feel obligado To bring all children, both
buenos and malos, A nice batch of dulces and other regalos. Outside in the yard
there arose such a grito That I jumped to my feet like a fightened cabrito. I
ran to the window and looked out afuera, And who in the world do you think that
it era? Saint Nick in a sleigh and a big red sombrero Came dashing along like a
crazy bombero. And pulling his sleigh instead of venados Were eight little
burros approaching volados. I watched as they came and this quaint little hombre
Was shouting and whistling and calling by nombre: "Ay Pancho, ay Pepe, ay Cuco,
ay Beto, Ay Chato, ay Chopo, Macuco, y Nieto!" Then standing erect with his
hands on his pecho He flew to the top of our very own techo. With his round
little belly like a bowl of jalea, He struggled to squeeze down our old
chiminea, Then huffing and puffing at last in our sala, With soot smeared all
over his red suit de gala, He filled all the stockings with lovely regalos-- For
none of the ninos had been very malos. Then chuckling aloud, seeming very
contento, He turned like a flash and was gone like the viento. And I heard him
exclaim, and this is verdad, Merry Christmas to all - Feliz Navidad!
If you come to a "Y" in the road,take it....

Is this original or did you find it somewhere ? If it's yours, my dire compliments amigo.
It's short of sensational and if you can write like that,enlighten us Nomads with some more of your work.
