Chapter One
The Real Nicholas
A Crunch of the snow
was the sound in the night;
Then Nicholas and all
emerged into sight.
His two little children were
following in tow;
Just helping their father drag
wood through the snow.
It's said he is magic for what
he can do;
And that he may visit, leaving no sign or clue.
All tales and his stories
changed more over time;
Making myths out of air and
his songs into rhymes.
But this one is different, and
now you will see;
When Nicholas was just Nicholas, before Christmas came to be.
