Twas the nights before Christmas
And all through the house,
The Crafters were stirring,
To the dismay of the spouse.
Earbuds playing music,
Coffee brewing all night.
Gotta stay up!
Gotta get it right!
Flour and sugar
Flying all over the place,
Ovens preheating
"I need more space!”
Cricuts were cutting,
3-D printers alight,
Lasers were burning,
All through the night.
Knitting needles were clicking,
Crochet hooks too.
Yarn by the side,
As the fingers flew.
Paint on the floor,
Super glue on our fingers.
Glitter everywhere,
It always lingers.
Computers were taxed,
Trying to find the right link,
For that d@ #$ SVG file
And the extra printer ink!
LED lights overhead,
To see tiny bead holes,
The Christmas tree lights,
Seeming kind of droll.
Boxes and bags,
Strewn all over the floor.
Bows and ribbon,
Stuck temporarily to the door.
We do this with love,
We do it with care.
Hoping to get it done,
It'll be on time, I swear!
The house has been cleaned,
The evidence gone.
We're tired and weak,
And it's just before dawn.
Christmas Day is here!
The presents are done!
Oh c@ #$!
I forgot the last one!
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
