A Visit from St. Nicholas - By Clement Clarke Moore
14The poem reading of A Visit from St. Nicholas or as some people know 'Twas the night before Christmas or The Night before Christmas. This poem was originally published in 1823 anonymously under the title Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas. Clement Clarke Moore claimed authorship in 1837. The Plot is on the night of Christmas Eve, a family is settling down to sleep when the father is awakened by noises on their lawn. Looking out the window, he sees Santa Claus (Saint Nicholas) in a sleigh pulled by eight reindeer. After landing his sleigh on the roof, Santa gets down the chimney. He carries a sack of toys, and the father watches his visitor deliver presents and fill the stockings hanging by the fireplace, and laughs to himself. They share a conspiratorial moment before Santa bounds up the chimney again. As he flies away, Santa calls out "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night."
