Christmas!

by Pourandokht Jafari Dizaji aged 10

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!
