The Countdown to Christmas

by Matthew aged 10

We wait and wait all year long
For a magical day,
Surely the best day of the year,
Where presents lay under the tree,
Through the night before,
Only if you’ve been good,
A magical character in red hood,
Slides down the chimney,
With a bag of gifts all for you.
You left out some cookies and milk,
He gobbled them up in a flash
To make a quick getaway
In his sleigh
He feeds the reindeer ,
And whoosh he’s off,
Ho ho ho,
A merry Christmas to all,
And to all a good night.
