Christmas Haikus

 

Poetry comes in many different forms but paints pictures 
with words from the heart.  Here`s a few haikus for the

Festive Season.

Christmas

Reindeer fly Santa 

to deliver boys and girls

gifts for Christmas Day!

Christmas

sparkly tinselled tree

with brightly coloured baubles

Bright star sits a top

stressful shopping times

struggling home with gifts

Christmas

carols round the tree

wrapped up in scarves and mittens

festive season`s here

Daft side of Christmas

Daft side of Christmas

running around like headless chickens

when buying gift for one and all

outdoing the neighbour`s lights

filling the larder with food

putting up the tree

eat turkey roast

drink some wine

knackered

sleep!!

Cat amongst the Presents

 Christmas is fun for us all and very amusing to our pets.  I have two mischievous cats.  it`s so funny to watch them chase after all the ribbons and torn wrapping paper, until they tire themselves out and curl up asleep among the mess, purring contentedly.

Cat amongst the Presents...

I see a little nose peeping through

all the wrapped presents under the tree

pointed ears twitching through the bows

as your loud purrs are heard happily

it`s so funny to watch you pounce

amongst all the torn wrappings

your tail swishing as you jump around

the Christmas decorations and trappings

tail in the air and your head on the ground

bottom wiggling as you`re ready to pounce

then there`s a flurry of fur darting by

as a bright coloured gift goes bounce

it`s lovely to see all the fun you`ve had

dashing and scurrying all around

but now you have tired yourself out

looking through, there`s only a purring sound

Joys of Christmas

Joys of Christmas

Reindeer dash across the sky
this snowy festive night
creating magic as they go

it's such an awesome sight

Hear the jingling of the bells

on Santa`s laden sleigh

bringing to all the children

the joys of Christmas day

Christmas Holly

Christmas Holly.

Colourful and jolly as the holly

may our Christmas be...

pudding stirred, laughter heard

filling our hearts with glee.

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 !!
