Christmas Elves sat there packing her things silently, all manner of memories flying through her brain like butterflies in spring. The holidays were over, her time here had come and gone so fast, a slight smile graced her lips as she remembered the last few weeks. The people had worked so hard to decorate their trees, they had all come together joyfully helping one another in their quest. Time had run out for some yet their spirits never faltered and even though some were not finished all were happy with what was accomplished.
She smiled remembering all the people she had met, with a twinkle in her eyes and a smiling curve on her lips. So many had helped, so many had encouraged others to go on even when all hope was gone. Everyone seem merry and kind. The elf thought of her visit through the cities gazing about at all that had been done and in one particular city her heart had made a small jump.
She remembered it like it was the present staring at the edge of the river in Britain slightly west of the bank. Her eyes had lit up like the lights on the Christmas trees when she gazed upon what she was seeing. Along the edge of the river red and white candy canes were standing on end, almost like soldiers on guard welcoming every visitor to their fair city. Of all the things she had seen in this land, that one site would always remain in her thoughts. The true spirit of joy and cheerfulness seemed to radiate from those red and white stripes.
The tired elf finished packing her things as she gazed about reluctantly readying herself to depart. As she walked away from this land she whispered quietly Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to one and all. With a twirl of the wind she was gone.
(Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to one and All. !!)
