CHRISTMAS DREAM # 4

I dream of Christmas

Warming us from winters chill

When hearts are overflowing

With seasonal good will

YULETIDE GATHERING

 

On the oak and iron studded door

There hung a wreath of yuletide

That was so pleasing to the eye

It seemed to welcome you inside

 

The hallway was lit with candles

Of every shape, size, and hue

And tasteful Christmas decorations

Seemed to be constantly in view

 

Down the entire length of the stairs

Entwining the polished mahogany

Garlands of holly and evergreen

Filled the scene most sumptuously

 

The drawing room was minimalist

Each decoration chosen with care

The focal point was the mantelpiece

And the little stocking hanging there

 

In the corner stood a mighty tree

Festively decked in all its glory

But there was more to the gathering

Than just the Christmas story

 

Every face bore a relaxed smile

Such was the festive atmosphere

And so proud was the hostess

But not just for the festive cheer

 

For this was the first Christmas

For their newborn son and heir

And so proud was the mother

Of her newborn son so fair

IT’S CHRISTMAS TIME AGAIN

 

It’s Christmas time again

When the spirit is beautiful

When every pocket is empty

But every heart is full

CHRISTMAS IS CANCELLED

 

There's no Christmas this year

There will be no Christmas cheer

For Santa checked the naughty list

And found himself a naughty miss

Then picked her up in his sleigh

And then flew her off to St Tropez

CHRISTMAS GETAWAY

 

The sleigh is empty

The list is ticked

It’s back to base

Double quick

 

Mrs. Claus is waiting

To greet me

Fidgeting around

Quite excitedly

 

The bags are packed

And in the sleigh

We’re off to Florida

For a holiday

SAD SANTA

 

Santa Claus is depressed

Its declining standards you see

The naughty list is now so long

It needs storing electronically

Whereas the good list has shrunk

And now fits on a sheet of A3

Father Christmas, Father Christmas,

Left his bag, Left his bag;

Up beside the chimney,

Up beside the chimney;

What a drag, what a drag.
