A CHRISTMAS STORY



Pooh and the girls brushed themselves off
and followed Mariah through the Mall,
traveling up escalators
and then up an all-glass elevator
which took them up to a pyramid tower
made of crystal and what seemed
to be sparkles of light.

Up...up...up they rose
gazing down at the vast
Christmas panorama below.

The girls gasped with excitement
as they saw a group of little elves
dancing in a circle
around a jolly, fat white-bearded man,
all dressed in red,
who was waving his arms over his head...
as if to be waving at them!

Finally, they heard a bell jingle
and they came to a stop.
The doors opened and they walked
into the tower room.

SPARKLING celestial bodies
filled the night sky
shining through the crystal clear pyramid walls
and exotic jungle flowers
rested in each corner of the room.

The smooth crystal floor
glowed a loving pink light
that welcomed and warmed their feet.

In the center of the room
was a large circular fountain bath
made of the whitest stone

Mariah walked over
and stepped in, clothes and all,
into the steamy water.

She promptly peeled off her clothes
and threw them over the edge.
Then she said,
"Come on in you three ducklings,
it feels great!"

Amanda and Samantha daintily stepped in
and immediately felt the magical,
soothing warmth of the water.

The warmth melted away their shyness
and they threw off their clothes
as they sank to their chins.

Pooh crinkled a smile and said
"Wait for me!"
He put a paw up to his nose,
closed his eyes
and jumped feet first into the pool.
"KASPLASH!"
"Good jump, Pooh!" the girls chanted.
