MY WORST CHRISTMAS PRESENT EVER # 1

My worst Christmas present ever

I thought I would be lucky to receive

It was big and so full of possibilities

But it really flattered to deceive

 

Beneath the coloured paper

That hinted at hidden promise

It turned out to be a cardboard box

Containing only emptiness

 

My mum was watching me intently

And my disappointment hurt her

My cheapskate dad then told me

It was an Action Man deserter

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 311

 

Mary had a little fan

She waved it to and fro

Mary still has her fan

But is it as little? No

ARE YOU WEARING A FESTIVE SWEATER?

 

Are you wearing a festive sweater?

Well, this season just keeps on getting better

And you really don’t need a bigger size

A more perfect fit would be hard to devise

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS # 2

 

Twas the night before Christmas and all thru the flat,

Not a creature was stirring not even the cat

The mince pies had been eaten everyone and all

And the dog had thrown up on the carpet in the hall

A CAROL FOR THE 21ST CENTURY – THE ROCKING CAROL

Little Jesus sweetly sleep, do not stir,

We will lend a coat of fur,

We will rock you, rock you, rock you,

We will rock you, rock you, rock you,

Little Jesus sweetly sleep, just you stick,

We will lend you man made fabric,

We won’t rock you, rock you, rock you,

We won’t rock you, as were not qualified

VISITING SANTA

 

You have to wait in line

To see Santa, but that’s fine

It’s worth every minute of queuing

And the anticipation of viewing

Santa Claus with his big belly

Wobbling like a bowl full of jelly

And his fruity chuckle you hear

In the Christmas grotto each year

Then you get to climb onto his lap

And have your special Christmas chat

Then all too soon it’s time to go

And Santa gives you a HO HO HO

ON THE EVE OF THE SPECIAL DAY # 2

 

On the eve of the special day

As the fire burns in the grate

I long for eternal goodwill

And an end to eternal hate
