ADIOS FRIEND

 

My Christmas wish for you,

My friend is a simple one

Have a happy time in the cold

I’m jetting off to the sun

THE QUEEN’S SPEECH

We listen at 3pm on Christmas day

To hear what the Queen has to say

While for those of a Republican bent

An alternative is just a click away 

SOAP TRADITION

 

Christmas is all about traditions

But they evolve across the years

Some fall from favour all together

Then new ones seem to appear

 

This is certainly the case

Of one of the more recent traditions

To the familiar Christmas fare

The TV soaps festive additions

 

This is when the tired old plot line

That’s simmered away since June

Suddenly explodes in your face

And not a moment too soon

A QUIET MAGIC DESCENDS

 

Oh, how a quiet magic descends

Upon the streets on Christmas day

As it’s the one day of the year

The shops are closed all day

CHRISTMAS DAY FOR THE POOR

 

Christmas day for the poor,

Hold very little surprise

For them it’s just another day

In a sparkling disguise

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 315

 

Ding dong dell

Pussy’s in the well

And that’s what happens

When you piss in my garden

ARE YOU WEARING A CHRISTMAS HAT?

 

Are you wearing a Christmas Hat?

Sitting so perfectly on your head

A gorgeous little tit for tat

White trimmed and crimson red
