‘Twas the Week Before Christmas

‘Twas the week before Christmas

And all through the Morrison Center gym

There was warmth and good cheer

And plates filled to the brim.

The DJ played on

Into the late hours of night.

While happy faces continued to come

And the dancing, oh what a sight!

There was Bill with his camera

And DJ Billy with the beat,

more food than we needed,

and all the cookies you could eat!

The Christmas tree sparkled

- did we mention the food?

And Santa had a list

of who was naughty and who was good.

Then as the night darkened

And we all had to part

Into the cold night we left

With warmth in our hearts!

The vans started and roared so all you could hear

Was the papier mache’ elf proclaiming

“Merry Christmas to all! See you all next year!”
