… Almost… almost Christmas time...

“... when out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,

I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.

Away to the window I flew like a flash,

tore open the shutters

and threw up the sash…

… When, what to my wondering eyes should appear...
Poem by Clement Clarke Moore, A Visit from St. Nicholas (The Night Before Christmas) 1822
