Christmas goats

If you wake at midnight

hear the cloven hooves fly

don't draw back the curtains

let them pass you by

for they are just the Christmas goats

with a twinkle in their eye

looking for a handy tree

to nibble bye and bye




they will bring you presents

more that you can yearn

there is butter a making

from the milk within the churn

and there is cheese aplenty

from the Christmas fern

and probiotic yogurt

giving microbes a good turn
