Whales are singing, and dancing too
Hear the song that fills the sea with music
A whale’s song fills your heart with glee
Lovely whales sing a tune not like any other
Everybody dances to the whale’s song

At Christmas I Wonder
Sometimes I sit down and wonder where we may be,
If you had decided to stay, would we have a tree?
Sometimes I wonder if you were still here,
Would we be Christmas shopping, laughing and full of cheer?
Sometimes I sit down and wonder, if you were sleeping down the hall,
Would I feel safer and excited as them all?
Sometimes I wonder, if you had chosen me,
Would I be happier, could Christmas be filled with glee?
Cause right now the music isn’t so bright in the air,
I don’t wanna sing, and honestly I don’t really care,
Cause the one thing I want for Christmas will not come to be,
Cause this year, you will be no where I can see.
Christmas Time
Christmas time is a time to be together,
and to give presents to who you love.
Make people smile everyday,
but last of all make people smile.
Christmas is for enjoying,
be sure not to peek into presents.
Open presents on Christmas,
And make it fun.
When Santa Knocks on Your Doorstep!
Snow dumped, outside in the street,
It is time to get ready for a treat,
Where are your premonitions?
All ready are the decorations!
Keep your home, tidy and neat
Santa’s gonna get you a gift and a sweet!
Whatever mum makes – pies or waffle
Remember, it is not going to be a trifle.
The children around, the way they waggle,
A day before, you can see them jabber.
Christmas is an ecstasy,
Bask in this opportunity.
There is not a way anyone can get ill-fated,
And this poem’s a way Christmas is promulgated
Enchanted Christmas
WINNER
Across an ocean
Over the ice
Into the world
Of creatures and plants
Once every year
(at the end of December)
The animals celebrate a holiday
Which they call Enchanted Christmas
The shimmer of the icicles
The sparkle of the ground
And the glow of the snow which garnish the pine trees
The hum of the forest spreads a word
Of a party which take place amongst the toadstools
The serpent hisses Christmas carols
While the parrots practice for their winter music
A butterfly flaps its wings to the beat of the deerskin drums
And the insects tap dance to the jingle bells tune
A jaguar, lion and panther roar as the Christmas party commences
The Northern Lights cast a light show into the starry sky
And the Enchanted Christmas continues
Everyone ready for next year’s surprise
Christmas Shopping
RUNNER UP
It’s that time of the year again.
I scan the shelves of shops for things my family would like,
A necklace for my sister, well thought out and given with love.
A stress ball for my brother. He broke his old one
and keeps telling Mum and Dad to get him a new one.
Face cream for my dad. He clearly loved that brand I got him last year.
And some bubble bath for my mum
because she doesn’t give herself enough time to relax.
I take a sip of my mocha, my hands warmed by the cup,
And my mouth warmed by the chocolatey taste,
I catch the 371 and sit near a window,
As I pass peaceful fields of white,
Proud of the gifts I have selected,
Smiling at the unity that Christmas brings.
Recipe for a Christmas Tree
First gather a cupful of shivering golden fairy lights
Next a pinch of sparkling colourful baubles
Now pour some shimmery shiny tinsel
Then stir in magical fun decorations
And sprinkle some glittery fairy dust
Now add a slice of excitement
And a spoonful of happiness
Then some Christmas warmth
Finally put the beautiful pretty star at the
Top of the tree
