Analysis of 'Twas the Night Before Connor
'Twas the night before Connor,
And all through the house,
All the Kuhn's were sleeping,
Even Connor's computer mouse,
How could that be?
He was bound to be on it,
But look throught the trees!
You could see him a bit!
Connor was approaching,
With eyes full of joy,
He was gonna steal the computers,
What a lucky, lucky boy!
He took a big leap through the Kuhn's door,
And landed with a huge plop on the floor,
It was the computer he saw straight ahead,
Good thing all the Kuhns, were snug in bed,
Then as he lept off of the soft floor,
He had the computer, and was out the door!
