A Feast For The Senses

by Naomi aged 11

It’s that time already!
Christmas is here,
The crackle of wrapping paper,
Is what we can hear.
The bustle of people;
The buzzing of bees;
The chirping of crickets;
The hint of a breeze.

On Christmas Day, there is a thing
That most of us do favour
Alongside all the gifts and fun
Are wonderful tastes to savour!
The delicious mango;
The nuts and raisins;
The roasted turkey;
The tangy craisins.

Christmas Day is approaching fast,
Anyone can tell,
Not only by the sights and sounds,
But also by the smells!
The spicy cinnamon;
The sizzling sausage;
The delicious pudding;
The peel of an orange.

In the days leading up to Christmas,
When all is merry and bright
Everywhere, your eyes will behold
Glistening Christmas sights!
The Christmas wreaths;
The sparkling tinsel;
The fairy lights;
The bells that jingle.
