Star

Shining

On top the tree

Our Christmas Tree

Tinsel and many baubles

Bright sparkling lights that flash

Our beautifully tall festive tree

Not forgetting all the chocolate Santas

At the bottom there are many different presents

Some small little packages and others large and lumpy

All so brightly wrapped with ribbons and bows

Casting shadows where the cat could go and hide

Wondering if she will sniff out her present before the day

Each family has its own traditions when celebrating Christmas

So let us all

Give thanks

So Merry

Christmas!
