It was a cold night in December,
How long ago? I don’t remember!
I was freezing! It was blazing!
That I didn’t freeze was real amazing!

The stars shone brightly in the trees
and through the branches blew a breeze
No roses bloomed, no squirrel zoomed.
Just a lonely lilac Crocus bloomed.

It is the Wintertime of year,
when the air is cold and clear
No bird is heard in mount or vale
and Hobbits go and order Ale

They order Ale to Celebrate
the Yuletide, when the food is great.
They gather together and debate
until it’s usually really late.

They think of the Blessings the year has brought
of the things that be, and the things that ought.
Young Hobbits stay up really late
and they all drink their chocolate.
