Last Christmas
We got the
winter vomiting virus
It wasn’t
nice
And it was
shared by all of us
It was the
worst
We didn’t
see much Christmas cheer
I tell you
one thing
We’ve just
asked for money this year

LAST CHRISTMAS
SNOWFLAKES MUST NEVER BE
Snowflakes must never be
Caught in your open mouth
Until you’re sure that all
The birds have flown south

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – THE ENGAGEMENT CLAUSE (2016)
This is the story of two sisters, Carrie and Katie Tate (Jes Macallan
and April Bowlby) who are as different as chalk and cheese.
Katie is away doing her own thing with no business brain or even any
interest in commerce, while Carrie has been working hard for several years
building the family business at the expense of a personal life.
But the bottom falls out of her world when Katie suddenly announces that
she's getting married on Christmas Eve and all hell breaks loose in the Tate
household.
And it’s all because there is some family chauvinistic contract which
states that the new husband of whichever girl marries first gets control of the
business.
So the race is on, will Carrie find a husband of her own in time to save
the business she loves or will she reprioritize her life.
ARE YOU WEARING XMAS STOCKINGS?
Are you wearing Xmas stockings?
With a
holly wreath motif
Along those
long festive garlands
How I wish to
trace each leaf
Along each
luscious limber leg
An ascent
exquisitely brief
To reach
the Christmas gift
Beyond the
holly wreath motif
TREE OF LIFE
Proudly standing there
In the
town’s main square
The
Christmas tree stands tall
Admired by
one and all
Decked with
coloured lights
Of red and
green and blue and white
And every
kind of coloured bauble
Short and
long, large and small
Candy canes
and bows adorn it
And myriad
forms of other trinkets
This wonder
easily catches the eye
Of every
busy passer by
Who simply
marvel at the sight
With open
mouthed delight
Who before
they continue on their way
Have to
wipe a tear away
But it’s
not the tree reaching to the sky
That brings
a tear to the eye
But the
parcels of every shape and size
A festive
feast for weary eyes
A testament
to people’s generosity
Sitting
beneath this wondrous tree
Such a
generous response to the endeavour
Thank God
for those who know the answer
When want
and need begs the question
Praise be
to those who never forget
With hearts
so full of Christmas spirit
MY FAVOURITE CHRISTMAS GIFT
My favourite Christmas gift
Costs
nothing it’s free
It’s the
overflowing gift of joy
I get from
my family
BRIGHTEST TIME
At Christmas time
There is
only one thing
Brighter
than the Christmas lights
And that is
the magical look
On a
child’s face
Full of
wonder and delight
