I dress all in fur, from my head to my foot, and my clothes are all tarnished with ashes and soot; a bundle of toys I have flung on my back, and I looked like a peddler just opening my pack. My eyes -- how they twinkle! My dimples how merry! My cheeks are like roses, my nose like a cherry! My droll little mouth is drawn up like a bow, and the beard of my chin is as white as the snow; the stump of a pipe I hold tight in my teeth, and the smoke it encircled my head like a wreath; I have a broad face and a little round belly, that shakes, when I laughed like a bowlful of jelly. I am chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf, and you'd laughed when you saw me, in spite of yourself!
We all look so good in red, must be our color, Thank you for posting these memories
