a carver was carving , and quiet as a mouse
late at night , all you could see ,
was a light on in the shop  where the carver would be, 
basswood in one hand and a knife in the other
a gift it would be for  sister or brother,
the carver kept working late into the night 
knowing all to well it would soon be light 
when the carving is done  he looks with delight 
to be able to give it away to someone tonight 
and the smiles it will bring to the ones that he  gives  ,
the carver will cherish it as long as he lives 
merry christmas,
