Laughing smiley face What a great twist on a classic! And did I understand correctly that Father Yule is an Elf? How funny! This was nice to read on Christmas Eve. We don't have any kids in our family anymore (I was the last), so we don't tell any of the good Christmas stories anymore. We just watch "Christmas Vacation" Razz smiley face

That was adorable and extremely clever! I loved it! When you mentioned Santa as an elf, I imagined Legolas wearing a santa outfit - it caused quite a bit of giggling on my part. X3

He he... that was so funny... and so sweet! Thank you! - I don't know if you're basing this on an original poem (at least not one I'm familiar with), but I still loooooved it! Very Happy smiley face

A nice sweet for Christmas; a confection that lingers. I found it a little long, however; maybe I was comparing it unfairly as I read to "T'was The Night Before Christmas" which runs along at a fair clip. The different-length verses also threw me a bit.

I wonder you didn't put it in Bombadil's corner, though; no reason a story can't be told in verse.
