 Photo by Ethel_GG Kent ~*~ The hustle, bustle of most everyone This time of year, always on the run Trying their shopping to finish soon Can then sit back and listen to a Christmas tune Children are playing with happy glee Helping to put up the Christmas tree So pretty with all the decorations They are getting ready for all the celebrations Of parties with friends and their families Exchanging of gifts put under their trees The trees are put in front of their window For passerbys the decorations to show Out in the yards, just take a look Can't imagine how much work all this took With lights everywhere, sparkling and blinking Some places they are put took much thinking All around the bushes outside And around the windows all on the inside Oh, how very, very pretty are they Blinking and sparkling, as if they play Looking at them, they seem to dance We walk amongst them, getting more than a glance Being every beautiful color you can think of Each strand put in place with so very much love Looking over there, baby Jesus, with an angel, you see And over there's an old Santa, who's smiling with glee Then there is Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer Leading Santas sleigh without any fear Each year looking forward, all these decorations to see They are not just for children, but also for you and me For Christmas time is almost here Just feel the excitement in the air ~*~ |
