December has come round again
Another Christmas time is near.
That time when young and old
December has come round again
Another Christmas time is near.
That time when young and old
Christmas cards come from absentees
Bringing so
many Christmas wishes
And those you
get to see in person
Are greeted
with Christmas kisses
It’s the
time for friends and family
Exchanging
gifts beneath the tree
A time to
enjoy every single moment
And make it
as magical as it can be
It warms my reminiscent heart
When Christmas
preparations start
When the
bells of Christmas chime
I am taken
back to happy times
With
special friends and family
And all the
Christmas memories
When
Christmas preparations start
It warms my
reminiscent heart
Of all the Christmas’s I can remember
My best
Christmas’s were the ones
Where I
would decorate the tree with dad
And make
Christmas cookies with mum
Thread
popcorn and make paper chains
Each day
opening the advent calendar
Wrapping
the gifts in excited secrecy
Writing
cards and sending them near and far
They are
just distant memories now
But they
were still the very best ones
And we must
make Christmas memories
Now we have
our daughters and our sons
Christmas Eve
It’s time
for bed
Listen for
the sleigh bells
Of the man
in red
Cookies and milk
By the fireplace
Excitement beams
From each
child’s face
Up the
stairs
And fast
asleep
Close those
eyes
You mustn’t
peep
Then when
you wake
You will
see
Sweets and
toys galore
To fill you
with glee
Santa comes but once a year
Riding on
his sleigh
From his North
Pole HQ
With gifts
for Christmas day
Santa comes
down your chimney.
To fill
your Christmas stockings
With nuts, fruit,
and candy
And all
kinds of wonderful things
So, remember
on Christmas Eve
To be good
girls and boys
Or Santa won’t
come
To bring you
lots of toys
I’m not looking forward to Christmas
Not since
we lost Mum this year
I’m not
looking forward to a Christmas
Devoid of
any Christmas cheer
Dads doing
his best to lift our spirits
All though
inside he’s really hurting too
He wants to
make it a special time
And do the
things like Mum used to do
So, we
decked the house with garlands
And trimmed
the Christmas tree
We hung the
Christmas cards on strings
So that everyone
could see
Then with
all the decorations up
My Dad went
round us one by one
To ask us
what gift we wanted
And he
promised his best would be done
My sister
Jules wants new clothes
Kenny wants
music of any kind
The twins
they want an X-Box
And the baby
really doesn’t mind
Then Dad
asked me “what do you want son?
What gift
would stop you feeling glum”?
I said “I
don’t want a present Dad
All I wish
for Christmas is my Mum”
