Right+Left+Night+Before+Christmas+Story

Twas The Night Before Christmas Story
Twas the night RIGHT before Christmas

when RIGHT through the house

Not a creature was LEFT stirring, not even a mouse—

The stockings were hung RIGHT by the chimney with care,

In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be RIGHT there

The children were nestled RIGHT snug in their beds,

While visions of sugarplums danced Right around in their heads

And mama LEFT in her kerchief, and I LEFT in my cap

had just settled RIGHT down for a long winter’s nap,

When RIGHT out on the LEFT lawn there arose such a clatter,

I sprang RIGHT from my bed to see what was the matter.

Away to the RIGHT window I LEFT like a flash;

Tore open the RIGHT shutters and threw up the LEFT sash.

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow

LEFT the luster of mid-day to objects RIGHT below

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">When, what to my wondering eyes should appear

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">With a little old driver RIGHT lively and quick;

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">I knew RIGHT in a moment it must be St. Nick

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">More rapid than eagles his coursers they came;

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">And he whistled and shouted, and called them RIGHT by name:

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">“Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer! Now, Prancer and Vixen!

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">On Comet, on Cupid, on Donder and Blitzen!

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">To the RIGHT top of the porch! To the LEFT top of the wall!

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">Now dash away, dash away, dash RIGHT away all!”

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">When they meet RIGHT with an obstacle,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">mount RIGHT up to the sky,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">So RIGHT up to the housetop the coursers they LEFT flew,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">With a sleigh full of toys and St. Nicholas, too.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">And then in a twinkling, I heard RIGHT on the roof,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">The prancing and pawing of each little RIGHT and LEFT hoof.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">As I drew in my head and was turning around

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">Down the LEFT side of the chimney St. Nicholas

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">came with a bound. He was dressed all in fur,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">RIGHT from his head to his LEFT foot,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">And his clothes were all LEFT tarnished with ashes and soot.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">A bundle of toys he flung RIGHT on his back,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">and he looked like a peddler just opening his pack.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">His RIGHT and LEFT eyes, oh how they twinkled!

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">His dimples? Oh how merry!

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">His droll little mouth was LEFT drawn up like a bow!

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">And the beard LEFT on his chin was as white as the snow.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">The stump of a pipe he held RIGHT in his teeth,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">and the smoke– it encircled his head like a wreath.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">He had a broad face and a round little belly,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">That shook when he laughed, like a bowl full of jelly.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">He was RIGHT chubby and plump,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">a RIGHT, RIGHT jolly old elf,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">And I was LEFT laughing when I saw him in spite of myself.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">A wink of his LEFT eye and a LEFT twist of his head,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">Soon gave me to know I had nothing LEFT to dread.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">He spoke not a word, but went RIGHT straight to his work,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">And filled all the stockings; LEFT to RIGHT,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">then turned with a jerk

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">And laying his finger to the LEFT of his nose,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">And giving a nod, he LEFT… Up the chimney he rose.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">He sprang RIGHT to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">And away they all LEFT like the down of a thistle.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">But I heard him exclaim, as he LEFT—out of sight,

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">“Happy Christmas to all—to all a good night!” <span style="color: #222222; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">As you can see this game is full of twists and turns. In the end, everyone will receive the a gift other than the one they brought. It is fun to see everyone opening their gift at the end too. This game is ideal for a wide variety of Christian retreats and youth camps. We highly recommend it during Christmas time for ladies retreats and special Christmas church camps or meetings.
