‘Twas the EDH before Christmas, and all on the table,\nNot a creature type missing, casting all we were able.

My opponent was smiling, tapping all of his lands,

\nOne mana to my name and I let out a shriek,

Calm yourself down, I know you\u2019re no threat,
\nBut If I keep you down they will be in my debt.
\nI know it\u2019s not fair, but I\u2019m sorry dear Percy,
\nYule Ooze and then I will show you Snow Mercy!<\/p>\n

\n<\/span>Then I pulled out my laptop and found the Gatherer page.
\nI browsed for an answer; O, what a selection!
\nBut none of these cards are in my collection!<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/magiccards.info\/scans\/en\/hho\/6.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\n(I wondered, “Is the game store open this hour?”)
\nI jumped in my car and took off with a flash,
\nRunning into the store with a fistful of cash.<\/p>\n
\nTime to feed my addiction, I fell deeper and deeper.
\nMore rapid than eagles his assistants they came,
\nThey showed me their wares, while shouting card names!<\/p>\n![\"Naughty\/\/Nice\"](\"http:\/\/magiccards.info\/scans\/en\/hho\/7.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nPlus Sorin and Lily and Ajani Goldmane!
\nWe have sleeves on the counter and mats on the wall,
\nNow please, purchase! Purchase! Purchase them all!<\/p>\n
\nAs I looked at my loot, I felt quite Naughty\/\/Nice.
\nBut on my way home I started to wonder,
\nWhat good were these cards with my group torn asunder?<\/p>\n![\"Gifts](\"http:\/\/magiccards.info\/scans\/en\/hho\/2.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nWhen they assembled I spoke with a serious face.
\n\u201cI\u2019m sorry for earlier, I’d been such a jerk,
\nBy flipping the table and going Berserk.\u201d<\/p>\n![\"Fruitcake](\"http:\/\/magiccards.info\/scans\/en\/hho\/1.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\n<\/span>The best kinds of gifts are surely Gifts Given.
\nI brought you some gifts… they\u2019re not sentimental,
\nBut I’d never give you a Fruitcake Elemental!<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/magiccards.info\/scans\/en\/hho\/3.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nWhat good are these things without friends to share?
\nMy friends\u2019 eyes all twinkled, what a glorious sight.
\nSeason\u2019s Beatings to all, and to all a good night!<\/p>\n![\"Season's](\"http:\/\/magiccards.info\/scans\/en\/hho\/4.jpg\")
