21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 304

There was a Ship sailed away to Spain

All the way there it was lashed with rain

And when they arrived at last in Spain

Where the rain didn’t fall in the main

As Higgins suggested on the plain

I DON’T MEAN TO GO INTO A PANIC

I don’t mean to go into a panic

Or cause a massive fuss

But there are now only twelve

Shoplifting days until Christmas

MY WIFE LOVES EXCHANGING PRESENTS

 

My wife loves exchanging presents

Happily, amidst the Christmas cheer

In fact, she enjoys it so very much

She exchanges my gift every year

RED BIKE

 

One Christmas

I got a big Red Bike

With white mudguards

All new and shiny like

 

But alas it was gone

Again, on Boxing Day

It belonged to the post office

So, the police took it away

ARE YOU WEARING BLUE TINSEL?

 

Are you wearing blue tinsel?

Tied amidst your lustrous curls

Not a festive hue and yet

You have it amidst the curls

So is it a statement or was it

The only colour you could get

RED SOCKS

 

Long red socks

And Christmas frocks

A sprig of mistletoe

That’s Christmas ho ho ho

HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO YOU BOTH

 

Happy Christmas to you both

See, we did remember

Because you are so dear

Just like every year

 

We will never forget

We just wish and wish

You were still here

Just like every year

 

We will remember

And take a pause

Amidst the cheer

Just like every year

 

So, we wish you

A happy Christmas

And wipe away a tear

Just like every year
