new elf. So Santa set off to find
an elf. After Santa had looked a
long time. He found an elf. So
Santa took the elf back to the toy
shop to help make toys.
When they got there, the elf
went into the toy shop to make
toys. The elf didn't know how to
make toys, so when he tried to
put things together he would put
them together wrong. The elf put

It all happened so suddenly in
the winter of 1973 when I was
only six years old, and here is
how it happened.
My brother, who was nine
then, my younger sister who was

going out, in Piney Woods, to get
a big evergreen. A nice cool
breeze swept into our faces but

A Blizzard for
We had travelled for about an
hour, through the Piney Woods,
before we came to the tree we
thought was perfect. Having cut
it down, we started on our way
back,
• A quarter of an hour later a
blizzard ',came up. The winds
were so strong we had to stay in
the forest.
Being the day before
Christmas Eve we wondered if
we would be back in time for
Vi* Christmas
then the worst was yet to come.

Christmas because the weather
was getting worse every second. ig
The next day we went for a little
walk.
Charlie fell into a snow-drift
which came up to his waist,
Marie tumbled down a foothill
which twisted her foot, while I
bumped into a tree and was all
covered in snow. Soon dad was
busy rescuing all of us.
Instead of starving we fed on a
few chocolate bars and a mixture
of smarties, shredded coconut
and raisins.
That night we realized it was
Christmas Eve and no hope of
getting home before Boxing Day.
We went to sleep sadly a
restlessly.
The next morning dad was up
first and found out all was clear.
With not a moment to spare, for
fear of the blizzard returning, he
woke us up and got us going.
Three quarters of an hour later
we reached the car. Dad, who
was dragging the evergreen all
the time, placed it on top of the
car and to 'Home Sweet Home'
we went.
quick,
It surely must be St. Nick,
Now it's dawn of Christmas
morn,
It looks like a new world born.
New snow, fluffy, silent, falling,

Soon I will go to bed,
And have my Christmas story

Throughout the night what do I
hear,
Very closely to my ear,
Little hooves running oh so
Tinkling bells softly calling.
Christmas presents and goodies
galore.
Family friends and love once
more.
