I love Christmas pizza.
With it baubles and lights
Such a delicious sight.
Sometimes I add sweets as I please.
But a little mouse takes the cheese.
I gobble it all up
I pack up some of the crumbs.
To give the mouse some food
Even though he took the cheese..
.
I want to be a Christmas tree
And be covered in baubles and lights so bright.
It would give such a sight.
When Santa arrives tonight.
I be alone on Christmas.
So please turn me into tree.
Give me some long branches.
It’s all I want to be
Christmas is coming soon,
I can’t wait for the Christmas noon,
WINNER
The unclothed hedges, the emptied fields,
The pungent spices, the burning coals,
The sooty chimney, clove-scented candles,
The porcupine trees, the silken shawls.
The nutcracker and the nuts that it yields,
Observed by mice through their private mouseholes,
The closed window that, from the cold, us shields,
The doors that opens to the poorest of proles.
The circular wreath, with its red berries, beckons,
Hung like a stocking upon the door,
Like a stocking filled with chocolate and coins.
All have been good this year, Santa Claus reckons,
This winter, I think, all deserve to get more
Of that which, every year, us in unity joins.
We open up our calendar door,
We start the countdown to 24.
Beautiful houses decorated with lights,
Christmas is such a cheerful sight.
Loads of trees, maybe pine or fir
Are getting put up in houses first.
Santa will arrive and enjoy his milk and cookies
Then hide the presents under the pretty Christmas tree.
I hope you have a great Christmas
(and figgy pudding!)
RUNNER UP
I was once a small fir-tree,
That every winter I had, I was never bought.
People came every Christmas to pick their tree,
But out of all of them, they never picked me!
Through that I was glad,
For maybe next winter, somebody could be my next “dad”.
But no as it seems,
Nobody picked me again, this isn’t my dream.
Every December morning, I started to grow,
Started getting stronger than before.
When I grew more bigger, I still didn’t get bought,
And I realized why I am not pure!
No rich colours in my soul,
I felt like a piece of paper burning on the stove.
Can I show my talent to those more than that?
No! Still I am bored.
A few years went by, and I had grown,
My dream hath come true – that is known!
Then one day for the Christmas Lighting,
I was picked and shone, like an angel is mighting!
WINNER
A time to celebrate
A time for family
Remember the others
A time to cherish
A time for gathering
Remember the less fortunate
A time of joy
Joy to the world
Joy to the nations
Joy everywhere
Is it?
Remember those without
Remember to care for other
Remember to spread joy
Remember to one another
It is time for caring.
While Christmas is near. We decorate trees.
I’ll go and prepare. For my siblings of three.
And the feast we eat. That Santa will gift.
And write bunches of sheets. And invite our friends.
To our feast at night. To play and have fun.
I’ll do a sleepover. And watch movies at night.
Until it’s all over. We’ll head back to school.
(Wish me luck)
