Competition Entry

Watch him chuckle
Watch him fly
Watch him fall from the sky
Watch him shout
His reindeer one by one
But Rudolph is so bright

It’s Christmas time, the snow is falling
chestnuts are roasting and bells are ringing
Hear that tap tapping
that clip clop?
Run upstairs and hide
‘cuz Santa is here

There is an angel in the sky flying high
Shepherds followed a star, they found a manger
and saw the baby Jesus

There were wise men, they followed the star
Baby Jesus lay in the hay
Wise men gave their gifts,
gold, frankincense and myrrh

One cold winter’s eve,
the snowflakes fell gracefully from the sky,
the streets were full of silence,
and the stars were high in the sky.
But out of nowhere,
there arose such a noise!
I leapt from my bed to see what cause,
an old red driver so fast and so quick,
I knew there and then it must be Saint Nick!
I ran from my room and tripped down the stairs,
just to see right in front of my eyes,
Santa Clause standing by our table and chairs!
He was eating mince pies,
and drinking some milk,
when he had finished,
he placed the presents under our bright Christmas tree,
and presents in our stocking,
then shot up the fireplace and out of the chimney.
I stood there amazed then went back to bed,
although what I just saw was amazing,
no one will believe whatever I say

Snowflakes falling from the sky,
Watch them fall,
Watch them glide,
Snowflakes falling from above,
Watch them swoop,
Like a dove.
Snowflakes falling from afar,
Watch them glisten,
As a star,
Snowflakes fall up in the air,
Watch them falling – everywhere.

Christmas crackers go pop
They have jokes in
You buy one from the shop
Your brain will have a win

I wish Christmas was every day,
though I would gain so much weight!
I’d gobble up everything, even the stuffing
On Mum’s new china plate.

I’d get beautiful presents,
ribboned and wrapped and signed,
I’d get the World’s Best Frisbee
With gold tape and silver lined

Christmas carols all the while
Angelic voices loud and clear
Sadly, the only time we get this,
is the Christmassy time of year

I love the shining lights,
As they brighten the night sky!
They shimmer and glow, bang and crash
As I whisper, breathless, “Oh, my!”

Here’s the sad thing about Christmas,
It only comes once a year!
Well, what can I do?
Gaze wistfully at that stupid calendar, just sit and stare . . .

Bell rings in the whole town,
The bell was rung by Jinglebell.

In that silent night,
When there was peace in the town,
Birth of Jesus Christ took place.

Everywhere sounds happiness,
Santa Caus coming along, yay!,
Bringing gifts for us.

Wearing a beautiful red costume,
Children enjoy the Santa Song.

Gifts are distributed among small children,
Decorated homes with Christmas Tree,
Have a happy and wealthy Christmas Day.

Merry Christmas to you all,
It’s been a long year
I wish happiness to all your loved ones,
And to all those dear

It is now chilly December
Choirs sing in the cold
They sing of baby Jesus
Myrrh, frankincense and gold

Although we’re all merry,
Sending the occasional card,
There are other people working,
Working desperately hard

Like nurses and doctors,
They rush about the ward,
At Christmas they’re on their feet
They never get bored

So Merry Christmas to everybody
To those who don’t rest a dime
I hope your wishes are granted
At this special time!

Yup, I’ve blown your mind
there you go,
Santa’s evil twin is REAL!
It’s a shock, I know

Come on kids,
hide under your sheets,
Sprouts and mouldy potatoes,
At Christmas, that’s what he EATS!

He steals your gifts.
He takes them for his own!
And, he thinks kids are hopeless,
so he leaves them a bone.

He isn’t cute or cuddly,
like Saint Nick should be.
He wears a cloak of deathly black,
to scare you or me.

So beware, my little friends
Keep your teddies intact
For Santa’s evil twin will come
who knows when he’ll attack???
