My Holiday Wishes
All my holiday wishes,
Are full of hugs and kisses.
It's the time I finally get to see,
The people called my family.
We have to drive and drive for hours,
Each of us going sour.
I think you will never understand,
Unless you have been trapped in a van.
We arrive and there is plenty of food,
I never know which ones to choose.
There is pumpkin pie, banana nut bread,
Turkey, dressing, or salad instead.
We hold hands and say a prayer,
I pray for everyone there,
Just a few words, a sentence or three.
And thank God I am with my family. Mistletoe a Christmas poem
by Walter de la Mare
Sitting under the mistletoe
(Pale-green, fairy mistletoe),
One last candle burning low,
All the sleepy dancers gone,
Just one candle burning on,
Shadows lurking everywhere:
Some one came, and kissed me there.
Tired I was; my head would go
Nodding under the mistletoe
(Pale-green, fairy mistletoe),
No footsteps came, no voice, but only,
Just as I sat there, sleepy, lonely,
Stooped in the still and shadowy air
Lips unseen - and kissed me there. Christmas Queries
Mother, why do Christmas trees
And Christmas gifts and melodies
Here and all around the earth
Celebrate the Christ child's birth?
Christmas trees are lighted for
The Savior's wondrous brilliant star
And gifts we give to everyone
Because our father gave His son.
Songs are sung, for on that night
When earth was bathed in holy light
Jesus came - so long ago -
And angels sang to tell us so...
Christmas Wreaths
Our Christmas wreaths are fat and round,
Made of the woodsy things we found.
We tied brown cones upon the green,
And stuck red berries in between.
Upon the wreath on our front door,
We tied red ribbon from the store. Funny Free Christmas Poems and Religious, Christian Readings.
