        In our Christmas letter.

Y      is for YULE LOGS

        Whose bright sparks fly high

        And give a warm welcome

        To friends passing by.

Z      is the last of the letters, and yet

        It’s they only one in the alphabet

        That doesn’t stand for something you   see

        And usually found on the Christmas      tree.

        But as Santa said as he ZOOMED        out of sight,

        “Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.”
