Christmas Verses
****
The sleigh was all packed,
The reindeer were fed,
But Santa still knelt
By the side of the bed.
" Dear Father," he prayed "
Be with me tonight,
There's much work to do'
And my schedule is tight.
I must jump in my sleigh
And streak through the sky,
Knowing full well
That a reindeer can't fly.
I will visit each household
Before the first light,
I'll cover the world
And all in one night.
With sleigh bells a-ringing,
I'll land on each roof,
Amid the soft clatter
Of each little hoof.
To get in the house
Is the difficult part,
So I'll slide down the chimney
Of each child's heart.
My sack will hold toys
I'll grant all their wishes
The supply will be endless
Like the loaves and two fishes.
I will fill all the stockings
And not leave a track,
I'll eat every cookie
That is left for my snack.
I can do all these things
Lord, only through You,
I just need your blessing,
Then it's easy to do.
All this is to honour
The birth of the One,
That was sent to redeem us,
Your most Holy Son.
So to all of my friends,
Lest Your glory I rob,
Please Lord, remind them
Who gave me this job.

One of the joys of December
Is telling others we care
and remember
So, ( name ) and ( name )
We care and remember
All the year through

windows shining bright.
Warmth and love and happiness
are everywhere tonight.
Carollers are singing
'neath the lamplights glow.
Happy smiling people
scurry to and fro.
Time to wrap the presents
the children are asleep
Dreaming, as all children do
that Santa's promise he'll keep.
Snowflakes falling softly
there's magic in the air
And all the joys of Christmas
we lovingly will share.
MERRY CHRISTMAS

Snowman verse
In a yard, a Snowman will stand
A little boy will take his hand.
They'll stand and talk for a little while
on the Snowman's face there's a happy smile.
As I look at the child's face
I know there's nothing can take place
of a Snowman on a winter day
as all the children run and play.
I think of years that have travelled by
since I looked towards the sky
and watch the Snowflakes tumble down
to make a white blanket on the ground.
We all seem to grow up fast
and look to years that have raced passed.
When we were filled with that wonderful joy
like the happiness I see in that little boy.
Next year when the snow comes down
there'll be Snowmen all around
And when the ground is covered anew
Who knows! Maybe I'll build on too!
Have A very Merry Christmas
****
It's Christmas Eve, time for bed
but not an eye will close.
Too much excitment in the air
to let you even dose.
So make a magic potion
to help you fall asleep.
Then Santa and his helpers
can down your Chimney creep.
Pour this cocoa in a mug
and with hot water mix.
Then drop in the magic kiss
and stir with the cinnerman stick!
Add a few marshmallows
and sip it slowly down
Crawl into bed and snuggle in
The 'Magic sleep ' will come!
****
I've done quite well, I must confess
to ward off Christmas lonliness.
I've mailed surprises many miles
to start those special morning smiles.
I've packed some food and clothes and toys
for less than lucky girls and boys.
I've sprinkled goodies on the snow
to feed some creatures we both know.
A service held by candlelight
renewed my heart this winter night.
I've helped to decorate our tree
the house glows warm for you and me.
With you beside me lost in sleep
my life is full, my love runs deep.
Yet memory stirs a dream long gone.
As I listen this Christmas dawn
for childish whispers on the stair
for tiny steps no longer there.
****
Do you know why the pine trees
stand so straight and tall?
How do they keep their branches, stiff and straight
and never stoop at all?
It really is a secret,
which the North Wind told to me.
That every pine tree hopes some day,
to be a Christmas Tree.
****
Once again the time has come;
To send out Christmas cheer,
I hope that all I send to you;
Will last all through the year
May Christmas bring you happiness;
And peace, and joy abound,
And all the blessings on that day;
That ever could be found.
All good things that go with Christmas;
I wish for, underneath your tree,
The very best of the holiday season;
Pours out to you, from me.
The warmest wish this Christmas
Is sent to one and all
To have the finest Christmas
Of any you recall
Happy Christmas to the family
And may the New Year too
Bring peace joy and happiness
To every one of you
There's magic in the air again
For Christmas time is here,
There's happiness in every heart
And all the season's cheer,
And there's a special kind of joy
That's part of Christmas, too-
The joy of wishing all that's best
Especially for you.
****
The snow is gently falling
In the cold still night.
A guiding star is shining
There to give it's light.
Some weary shepherds follow
This bright and shining star.
Hearing Angels voices singing
Sweetly from afar.
Sometime time later 'neath
The star so bright.
They see the new born Jesus
A most wonderful pure sight.
Wishing you a wonderful and peaceful Christmas and New Year.

Grandma's Christmas memories
Amidst fading, precious photos
of family and Friends
she sits beside the big log fire, pen ready and cards to send.
"Here we are around the tree
and here at Christmas lunch.
Oh, look at me, I was so young!
and here it's New Year brunch.
Who was that howling monster?
was that really Auntie kate?
Now- this is the year
your Uncle drove his truck right through the gate!"
Her trembling hand with love recalls.
The Christmas before
and a silent tear slides down her cheek
For those who are no more.
****
The Sad Snowman
The sad little Snowman went shuffling down,
the track through the forest that bordered the town.
His snow body was dirty, his coat was all torn
and an icy tear ran down his snow face forlorn.
" Those naughty boys did it,
they threw stones at me,"
He sobbed to the Old Wise Owl in the tree.
Then the darkness was broken by a warm shaft of light,
a door was thrown open and sweet sounds filled the night.
The Snowman stood still and a child cried with glee,
" Oh Daddy did you make him,
did you make him for me.?
Two chubby arms hugged him, then pattered his chest
and a little voiced whispered " MY Daddy's the best!
I've been very ill and he knew I was sad,
so you are the best thing that I could of had.
I'd always wished for a Snowman you see,
but there's no running round for children like me.
I'm stuck in this wheel chair, can't play in the snow,
now I've got my Snowman it's better you know."
So that tired little Snowman, once broken and sad
found out to his joy that not all the world's bad.
****
Wishing you God's peace and joy at this holy season
The night is dark and silent
the air is crisp and dry.
As the first snowflakes of Winter
start falling from the sky.
With movements light they dance and float.
Then settle with shimmering grace,
to form a soft white blanket
that's made of nature's lace
Childrens verse
Our Snowman has six buttons
but does not have a coat.
Just a stripey scarf, wrapped around his throat.
A carrot nose, black coal for eyes
and Grandpa's pipe is just his size!
So proudly near the fence he stands.
Hat on head and broom in hand,
with a jolly smile that seems to say,
" Hello there folks, enjoy your day!"
****
When you wake up Christmas morning
if you've been very good.
Santa will have filled your stocking
As you hoped he would.
So close your eyes up tightly
and make a wish or two.
For Santa is coming very soon
with presents just for you!
****
Children
The wind is whispering secrets
it's voice is soft and low.
There are white and wintery secrets
in the quiet falling snow.
Hear secrets in the footsteps
of the people on the street. And in gay, ribboned packages
of everyone you meet.
There are merry secrets twinkling
in the eyes of many a child.
Secrets kept by Mum and Dad
when you asked, they only smiled.
Oh, our world is full of secrets
now steal quietly away.
Til they open up like magic
On a wonderous Christmas Day.
I baked a Gingerbread man!
He'll run as fast as he can,
to bring you this Christmas Wish.
In return for this greetin,
he requests NOT to be eaten.
But will gladly accept a KISS!
****
An Angel comes from Heaven,
with each Snowflake that falls.
Sprinkling Stardust and good wishes
And Love to one and all.
******
May a loving spirit within your home abide.
No thought or word disturbing
the joy of Christmastide.
And when you reach the ending
of this most happy day.
Don't let it go at midnight
bid the Christmas spirit stay.
****
with precious gifts to hold.
Those that will last forever
for they're worth far more than gold.
May the precious gift friendship
surround you every day.
And may life always bring you joy
in every single way.
May you realise every day
that every star you see.
Is a symbol just for you
to be all your meant to be.
For such things are far more precious
than any gifts we may receive.
For they bring a meaning to each day
that we may often scarce belive!
So, may the Christmas Angels
as they sing their joyful song
tell of how they're with you always
as your path you walk along.
With warmest thoughts
for a
Special Christmastime

I made a Snowman round and fat
and on his head I put a hat.
He sat out in the sun all day
and slowly melted all away.
But I can tell just where he sat,
because he did not take his hat.

One shining star
appeared that night.
A Saviour was born, a guiding light.
One tiny Child
the chosen one
to change the World
God gave His Son.
One shining Star to light the way
It took this Child for Christmas Day
One Newborne babe
by the name of 'Jesus'
laid in a manger he was sent to save us.

Now that Christmas time is here,
there' so much I'd like to say.
To tell the world about my Sister
who brings joy along each day.
No one else has shared My secrets
nor the time that I have cried
More than my kind and Caring Sister
whom I know is on My side.
She's there with her caring heart
when in problems I am caught.
Or when I needed cheering up
because of troubles life has brought.
She's such a lovely person
upon whom I may depend
my beautiful Caring Sister
my guide and my best friend.
.So, now that Christmas time is here
no one could be wished more happiness
than the very Special Sister
with whom I have been blessed.
