EVERYBODY LOVES IT

 

Everybody loves it

Even if they won’t admit it

From the newly bred

To the nearly dead

Christmas is the bee’s knees

From decorated Christmas trees

To candlelight and mistletoe

And every happy HoHoHo

Some may not agree

At least not openly

But are quite happy

To enjoy it secretly

I WROTE A LETTER TO SANTA

 

I wrote a letter to Santa

Making my request

I told him what I wanted

Stating what was best

 

I didn’t ask for jewels

I didn’t ask for jewelry

I didn’t ask for gold

I didn’t ask for luxuries

 

I asked him for a gift

I consider the greatest prize

I asked him for the look of love

To be present in your eyes

 

I asked him for your heart

So, to make me live

I asked him for your love

But they’re not his give

 

I wrote a letter to Santa

Making my request

I told him that I love you

I’m sure he’ll do what’s best

NOT JUST ANOTHER CHRISTMAS

Christmas has come around

It’s another Christmas dear

Another special season

So full of Christmas cheer

 

Just another Christmas?

We had better not forget dear

It’s not just another Christmas

Something’s different this year

 

What’s special this Christmas?

You’ve surely not forgotten dear

A milestone is to be reached

That’s what’s special about this year

 

It’s a special Christmas isn’t it?

I see the penny has dropped dear

We must hang up baby's stocking

It’s his first Christmas this year

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 179

 

Little Robin Red breast sat upon a tree,

Then joined by his mate they looked so twee

So, I shot them for being too damned happy

ARE YOU WEARING A PAPER HAT?

 

Are you wearing a paper hat?

It’s Christmas day and that’s that

We’ve pulled our Christmas crackers

So, everyone must wear a paper hat

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS # 12

 

Twas the night before Christmas

And all thru the bungalow

Not a creature was stirring

In the firelight glow

THE JINGLE OF SLEIGH BELLS

 

The Jingle of sleigh bells, herald

His coming on Christmas Eve

When Santa Claus takes the time

To fill our stocking and I believe

That Santa Claus thinks sincerely

It’s better to give than to receive
