NORWEGIAN GIFT

 

A gift arrives each year

From across the sea

A gift from the people of Oslo

An annual gift of a Christmas tree

 

Given with gratitude

To stand in Trafalgar square

Received with pride

By those of us who care

 

A symbol of friendship

Given to us each Christmas

A token as a gift of thanks

Sent from Norway for us

BUMPER CHRISTMAS

 

All the sights and sounds

And all the tastes and smells

Make me love Christmas

 

All the carollers singing

And all the lights twinkling

Make me love Christmas

 

But there is one thing

More than any other

That makes me love Christmas

 

The bumper Radio Times

First going on sale

That makes me love Christmas

SANTA’S LITTLE HELPER

 

I’ve bought a special gift

For my Christmas honey

It’s a “Santa’s little helper” outfit

And it’s bloody horny

Its red velour with white fur trim

And matching lingerie

It’s figure hugging short and tight

And shows all you’d want to see

I’ve always liked sexy outfits

And this is the best I’ve seen

I’m sure that she will like it

Especially as it wipes clean

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

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 173

 

Father Christmas, Father Christmas,

He got stuck, he got stuck;

Coming down the chimney,

Coming down the chimney;

Too much tuck, Too much tuck.

ARE YOU WEARING A CHRISTMAS OUTFIT?

 

Are you wearing a Christmas outfit?

Well, you really do look good in it

And it doesn’t look risqué, not a bit

It’s a really cracking little outfit

Though all the emphasis is on the fit
