Twas the night before Wintersday, when all through Tyria
Not a creature was stirring, not even an Asura.
The stars hung in the sky with the snow twinkling in the air,
In hopes that Toymaster Tixx soon would be there.

The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sweet omnomberries danced in their heads.
And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap.

When out from the skies there arouse a giant Golem,
I sprang from the bed to see the marvelous gem.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But the vessel that bellowed the Wintersday cheer.

The little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it was Toymaster Tixx.
Slowly it hovered over Lions Arch’s mane
With a song of whimsy that pattered like rain.

“Now dash! Now dance! And prance like vixens.
Like a comet, don’t be stupid, we’ll mew like kittens.
To the top of the arch, to the top of the wall!
Now dash and dance! Come all! Come all!”

The townsfolk gathered and sang in a joyous cry,
Pointing and reaching towards the snowy sky.
So up to the heavens the Golem loom
With the vessel full of Toys to fight off the gloom.

And then, in a twinkling, the Asura appeared,
In the middle of the Plaza which the Mad King seared.
As we stood in wonderment, bewilderment, in awe
That a grown-up Charr began to lick his paw.

Tixx spoke not a word, but drew out a magnificent cube,
And flung it to the ground that startled a rube.
From the debris and tinsel, came out a mechanical prop,
Humming and tinning was the portal for his shop.

He sprang to the light and disappeared in thin air,
Most looked around, and some did not dare.
The children did not care and jumped in with joy,
For every Tyrian was guaranteed the masterwork’s toy.

Happy Wintersday to all,
Big or small.
Happy Wintersday to all,
Come all, come all.

Well, of course I’m being childish!
