Usborne Central Christmas is one very special day, For we think of Jesus and where he lay, And we also think of Santa and his presents, For the rich people and the peasants, Santa is so jolly, nice, and kind, But there are others people imagine in their mind. Christmas is for feasting and for fun, And for boys and girls to run, run, run; Little and big kids have frolick and fun, Outside in the snow with lots of sun. So in my opinion Christmas is lots of fun. THE LAZY ELF By .teff Sweitzer Stephen Central -Grade 6 Once upon a time there was an elf. He was so lazy that when he was asked to make 10 dolls he got one done. And was he ugly! Ile was as ugly as an elephant's toe. All he wanted to do when he grew up was to be a doctor. One day while he was dream- ing he got a phonecall from Santa. The sleigh broke down and he wanted lazy elf to fix it. He got to the sleigh and nobody was there. Ile got ito the sleigh and fell asleep. When he awoke he was in a stocking above a fireplace. The Lazy elf stayed with the stocking owner and never was lazy again. came with a bound. He was dressed in asbestos from head to foot, And his spacesuit was tar- nished with ashes and soot. He then turned suddenly his jet -pack on, Gave it the gas and then he was gone. But I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight "MERRY CHRISTMAS '1'() ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT."
