And I asked old Jack, "Do you remember the night
When the sky was so dark and the moon shone so bright?
When a million small children pretending to sleep
Nearly didn't have Christmas at all, so to speak?
And would, if you could, turn that mighty clock back,
To that long, fateful night. Now, think carefully, Jack.
Would you do the whole thing all over again,
Knowing what you know now, knowing what you knew then?"
And he smiled, like the old pumpkin king that I knew,
Then turned and asked softly of me, "Wouldn't you?"
Ps. Happy Belated Des! ♥ We've known each other for a ridiculously long time. Literally so yeah. :D Heh. "If I can put up with you for
Everybody else, return to your regular scheduled program of the day. After all, we wouldn't want to mess up the complex clockwork frame of your schedule wouldn't we?
