Toe-rag the red-toed reindeer
had a very shiny toe
And all of the other reindeer
used to laugh to see it glow

But there were still two reindeer
who didn't laugh and call him names
They were Balladeer and Long John
who all liked to play their games

Then one foggy Christmas Eve
in A-la-bam, down south
They couldn't see through all the fog
then they heard little Toe-rags mouth

Balladeer and Long John went there
helping him to get through
They could see Toe-rags toe
Santa saw it glowing, too

Then for the rest of time
on every Christmas Eve
If you will look real close
you will surely see

For Santa fixed the problem
they could then see far and near
Up at the front of Santas sleigh
are Toe-rag, LongJohn, and Balladeer

So special to be the one and only,
who had a very shiny toe~

Cute write, Ethel~
I hope your Holidays are merry and bright.

(giggles in delight) Hehehe, Santa just keeps recruiting new reindeer so fast it's almost time for him to upgrade the technology of his sleigh! (giggles) I've got the keyboard, let me get this to song, yay, LOL! I love this, dearest friend, Merry Christmas, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Aw, Ethel, this is cute! Yes, it's true that Toerag, Longjohn and I are 'deers but we don't let Toerag lead any more. Seems the creature had this, er, flatulism problem and Santa and the elves all got sick during the trip - not to mention that the view from behind him left a lot to be desired. So, should you look up in the sky tonight and see Santa's sleigh passing by, you will see LongJohn and I leading the way and Toe being pulled from behind the sleigh. (We told him we needed a rear taillight and he believed us)

Merry Christmas, sweet lady!!

I swear... I looked and looked and looked... but snow was falling and I missed one delight in the appreciation of another! *S* But how I would have loved to have captured those 3 on film! *G*

Enjoyed this very much, dear lady! *S*
