'Twas The Night Before Christmas in Middle Earth by MCB
 
'Twas the night before ChristmasAnd all through the Shire
 Not a hobbit was stirring,
 Not even a squire
 The ring was hid on the mantle with care
 In hopes that Gandalf would soon be there
 
 Then what to Frodo's eyes should appear?
 A figure on horseback, a dark cavalier
 Dressed all in black from his feet to his skull
 He knew in a moment
 It was a Nazgul
 
 More rapid than eagles
 The others they came
 They call "To Mordor,"
 And they called him by name
 Back to the hobbit hole
 Frodo soon flew
 With Sting in his hand,
 And the golden ring too
 
 Through the hole they came
 With a step and a hiss
 It was dressed in the robes
 Of Mordor's abyss
 It spoke not a word
 And went straight to its work
 It filled Frodo's stockings
 And turned with a jerk
 
 The Nazgul looked at Frodo
 And took a moment to pause
 Before removing his hood
 It was Santa Claus!
 The hobbit, he smiled
 What a glorious sight
 That Nazgul was Santa on this good Christmas night.
