THE MAN IN RED

 

Christmas Eve

It’s time for bed

Listen for the sleigh bells

Of the man in red

 

Cookies and milk

By the fire place
Excitement beams

From each child’s face

 

Up the stairs

And fast asleep

Close those eyes

You mustn’t peep

 

Then when you wake

You will see

Sweets and toys galore

To fill you with glee

SANTA

 

Santa comes but once a year

Riding on his sleigh

From his North Pole HQ

With gifts for Christmas day

 

Santa comes down your chimney.

To fill your Christmas stockings

With nuts, fruit and candy

And all kinds of wonderful things

 

So remember on Christmas Eve

To be good girls and boys

Or Santa won’t come

To bring you lots of toys

CHRISTMAS WISH

 

I’m not looking forward to Christmas

Not since we lost Mum this year

I’m not looking forward to a Christmas

Devoid of any Christmas cheer

 

Dads doing his best to lift our spirits

All though inside he’s really hurting too

He wants to make it a special time

And do the things like Mum used to do

 

So we decked the house with garlands

And trimmed the Christmas tree

We hung the Christmas cards on strings

So that everyone could see

 

Then with all the decorations up

My Dad went round us one by one

To ask us what gift we wanted

And he promised his best would be done

 

My sister Jules wants new clothes

Kenny wants music of any kind

The twins they want an X-Box

And the baby really doesn’t mind

 

Then Dad asked me “what do you want son?

What gift would stop you feeling glum”?

I said “I don’t want a present Dad

All I wish for Christmas is my Mum”

WITH OPEN ARMS

 

With open arms I welcome Christmas

I embrace its merriment and mirth

With open heart I welcome Christmas

To celebrate the Christ Childs birth

KRIS KRINGLE

 

If there is one thing

To make the senses tingle

It’s the coming of

The good Kris Kringle

 

On Christmas Eve

We wait and pray

For good Kris Kringle

To come our way
