THE CHRISTMAS MESSAGE BY FIONA CUMMINGS


THE CHRISTMAS MESSAGE

BY FIONA CUMMINGS

 

It’s that time of year again

Fragrance of Satsuma’s and cinnamon

Fairy lights twinkle

On the Christmas tree

Waiting for Santa to come to me

With his belt with a buckle

And coat of red

He visits us all when we’re tucked up in bed

With a long white beard

And rosy cheeks

Big black boots

To keep toasty his feet

He parks his sleigh

Out of the way

Of girls and boys

As it’s a secret

 All their toys

 He visits during the night

It amazes me

How he gets it right

How does he see?

It’s so dark outside

And he even manages to hide

Rudolf and co

Covered in North Poll snow

As he comes down the chimney

Whispering “Ho Ho Ho!

Or takes from his pocket his magic key

Has his milk and biscuit

And for the reindeers a carrot

Sack back on his back

Out into the black

Nipping Jack Frost at his fingers

Fairy dust lingers

Painful like splinters

But Santa is happy

On with his journey

Over houses full of anticipation

We have to love his dedication

Every year

With festive cheer

He makes a visit

Of gifts so exquisite

But most of all

The Christmas bells, call

For everyone to learn

Whilst candles burn

And choirs sing

This is the most important thing

To give what’s free

To you and me

And that is time to care

For our love is ours to share

And will mean more than any parcel

Wrap your hands coupled with a loved one

And seal them with a sparkle

Make others feel as though they belong

Then you can’t go wrong

Wishing you a merry Christmas

May all your dreams come true

With hope and love

From me to you
