Christmas

Christmas

Christmas day what does it mean
A white snowy morning, a nativity scene
Stockings are full, gifts are wrapped
Bacon and eggs, for the morning baps

Opening presents, pulling a cracker
Spending time with the people that matter
We feast on the food, popping the corks
Get your coats for those post-dinner walks

Out come the games, the falling out too
Kettle on for the afternoon brew
Put on the telly, do some channel hopping
Checking the internet for Boxing day shopping

Xmas pudding or trifle, or shall I wait
Back to the kitchen, more food on my plate
Time for a tipple, open the bar
Make those telephone calls to those near and far

As the day it slowly draws to a close
Don’t forget the photos round the tree, and pose
With your belly full and a smile on your face
A day with family and friends has really been ace

It’s been a wonderful day full of festive cheer
Well that’s Christmas done for another year
