Love they say, was born at Christmas, Peace, was brought to mankind at the break of Dawn. The Stars and Angels gave the Sign, so here's the story of an Ecstatic Yuletide Season and how it was Saved.

It was the night before Christmas and all souls were asleep, plus the house was left so quiet and empty. The neighbouring children were all tucked and snug in their beds while dreams of sugar-plums and christmas parties danced and made sounds in their heads. Santa was set to come but a ghastly train accident led to his untimely demise in cold blood. Unable to meet the demands of the neighbouring children who craved a thrill, it was sadness all over. Who would take them to the seaside and throw a party for them? Who would surprise the children with heartfelt gifts and trips around the beach?

Just when all hope seemed lost, there came an Elf named Sparks with the super idea to fill the wishes of every child in the community. From land to land and from house to house, he saved Christmas night, yelling those words they all knew so well, "Merry Christmas to all" And when they thought it was all over, there was a banquet of gifts, happiness, continental and foreign dishes and so much to drink for the little children near and far. This, not only became a one-day event but a norm each time it was the yuletide season and when the children were asked what christmas means to them, they replied saying: Christmas carols singing in the frosty air, Hours being spent decorating the tree with Reindeers galloping across the sky and Icy cold snow flakes twirling across by, Singing and rendering christmas songs with mom and dad, with Trees decorated in gold and reds and Mince pies ready, delicious and hot, A baby in a manger cot, and a Star that guides along the way, that's a Christmas Day.
