Dafter side of Christmas

 




Dafter side of Christmas..!!

It must be Christmas time again
the latest toys are on the shelves
and the queues are getting longer
Santa`s lucky, he has his elves

battling through the crowds again
loads of shopping bags to carry
as I`m struggling with the car keys
why can`t I have my own fairy?

fought hard to put the tree up
untangled many miles of lights
wrapped presents sit under the tree now
promising many joys and delights

mistletoe hangs over the door
to catch the unsuspecting man
carols played on the radio
as some snores are heard from nan

a jumble of cards on the mantle
turkey`s nicely cooking away
the family`s crammed altogether
as we celebrate Christmas Day !

Christmas Cheer

 








Christmas Cheer!

It`s that time of year again
the excitement is growing
everyone has their secrets
there`s no sign of it slowing

Shopping bags and packages
sticky tape, and wrapping paper...
cards written and presents done
all this fun is such a caper

Decorations all in place
just love the atmosphere
raise you glass everyone
for Christmas time is here!

Christmas count down has started !!

Start of Autumn

 

I love autumn, all the bright colours on thee trees and fruit ripening, harvest time!!
The Winter is just around the corner followed by Christmas....yeah!!!







Start of Autumn


September rumblings
autumn`s now on its way
the warmth has left the sun
cold blue skies here to stay

weather`s unpredictable
but that's how I like it
maybe we`ll have snow soon
it strengthens the spirit!

bright colours on the trees
they`re changing their attire
orange, reds and yellows
summer can now retire

it`s like another world
low lying misty mornings
everything is shrouded
sending winter warnings

crunchiness under foot
and a bite in the air
wrap up now and stay warm
it`s time to take good care

September`s a great month
marks a change in the year
for earth start to sleep
as winter will be here..

Old Saint Nick

 



 Old Saint Nick

On this cold Christmas Eve
with children tucked up in bed
 old Saint Nick and his reindeer 
flying through the sky on his sled 

he leaves a gift in each house
for every good girl and boy
bringing much festive cheer
letting us share Christmas joy!

Our Christmas Tree

 




Our Christmas Tree.

Twinkling in the lights
Wrapped around the tree
Red and golden tinsel
A spectical to see

Different shapes and sizes
These baubles hanging there
Along with chocolate santas
All shimmering with flare

Lucious thick pines smelling strong
All pert and fresh to the eye
From the floor to the very top
Where an angel sits on high

There's a long string of colours
Also winding round the tree
Little bulbs that flash with joy
Makes our tree alight with glee

Placed all around its base
Many presents wrapped up bright
With bows, ribbons and labels
Our tree is an awesome sight

Old Man of the Forest

  


 Old Man of the Forest


From huge spreading roots of this mighty tree
to the rubbery bark stretching up towards the sun
from the ground level to the very tips of its branches
this magnificent tree stands proud for everyone

taking its life force straight from Mother Earth
this awesome tree has stood for hundreds of years
supporting such a diversity of life
living in their world until death appears

rising up high to the top of the canopy
spreading its laden branches for all to see
forming a corridor across the forest
allowing animals to travel in safety

this wonderful old man of the forest
stands tall for everyone to aspire to
home for so many insects and animals
it`s grown up to be loved by me and you!

Christmas Baubles

 



Christmas Baubles.....


Nesting in our Christmas tree

amongst all the shiny needles
caught up in the twinkling lights
brightly coloured baubles hang
reflecting the world upside down
on these smooth curved orbs
along with stars and ribbons
as they decorate our tree..!
with long strands of tinsels
shimmering through everything
and perched upon the top
an angel resides over all
white robes and golden wings
angelic guardian protector.
