Adapted from “A Visit from St. Nicholas” by Clement Clarke Moore
‘Twas two nights before Christmas, and all through the North Pole,
The elves were all scurrying despite all the snow.
Santa was trying to rest up for his long flight;
But he could not sleep despite it being night;
The elves were all worried, could Santa make the trip;
If he was still drowsy, “Oh No! He might slip!”
And Mrs. Claus too, was getting no sleep;
This mattress is terrible, it should be thrown in the trash heap!
All the sudden Santa rose with such a clatter,
He was done with this stressful, sleepless matter!
Away to the barn he flew like a flash,
To sleep with the reindeer he started to dash.
But only before he called out to the workshop below,
If I can’t sleep, the toys will not go!
The elves started to panic to all that could hear;
Who will drive the miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer?
Just then it came to them so lively and quick,
We’ll get a new mattress for old St. Nick!
More rapid than beagles did the elves they run,
We must get Santa to sleep or the kids toys will be none!
They whistled, and shouted, and called each reindeer by name:
“Now, Smasher! now, Dancer! now Chancer and Dixen!
On, Carmella! on, Fred! on, Conner and Glitzen!
To Fred’s Beds Discount Mattress Outlet, let’s get on the ball!
Now dash away! fly away! swirl away all!”
As leaves that before the wild Georgia wind fly,
The elves set out for Cumming, just a very short ride.
So to Fred’s Beds the elves arrived and hurried inside.
With visions of snoring and sweet dreams for Santa to abide;
The store quickly became busy with the elves all a foot.
But Fred’s Beds’ team of helpers were ready for each little foot.
We must hurry for Santa, do you have a new mattress around,
He needs something cozy to sleep nice and sound.
Down the chimney goes Santa, with toys in a pack,
He needs a good mattress that can support his back.
We don’t have lots of money, so we need a great deal!
Remember, if you treat us wrong, coal could be yours for real!
The Fred’s Beds team were ready and quick, they knew how to take care of Old Saint Nick!
We got you covered, after all don’t you see, we are also elves they said with a glee.
To the mattresses all the elves sprung alive, each trying out the many, many types.
Thankful that at Fred’s Beds the deals are real, not just hype.
“So what kind do you think Santa Clause will want?” asked Fred’s Beds team.
We have them all, AND at great discounts you see.
Kluft, Simmons, Beautyrest just to name a few.
Along with Shifman, Tempur-pedic, Sterns & Foster, they are here too.
We have many Sealys and Sertas for his back;
But most of all, we have very special king-size Aireloom Vitagenic Holland Maid Latex, that would be perfect in fact.
The elves cheered for joy, they had found the right one!
Of course, the head elf said, “Fred’s Beds can’t be undone!”
For Fred’s Beds in Cumming, as everyone knows;
has the best mattresses of anywhere in Georgia you go.
Quickly the elves loaded the sleigh for the North Pole;
Each happy and jolly with the new mattress in tow.
When they arrived back home the mattress was quickly put in place
So Santa could get to sleep most immediately, post haste!
At first the jolly, old elf was quite upset with the elves;
until he saw the Aireloom that beckoned him now for better wellness, health and sleep.
Before you knew it Old Saint Nicholas was fast asleep,
Dreaming of all the toys for the children, he would soon leave.
The elves were quite happy but, tired from their trip.
Why didn’t we think to get a new mattresses too, they all started to quip!
