Christmas is a time of hope love and sharing
A chapter in the book Poems for children of all ages
Christmas Blessings
by fionageorge
Christmas Day is drawing nigh
Children’s expectations high
Santa sure to bring them gifts
Imaginations set adrift
Mum and Dad are feeling sad
Economy's got so bad
Savings have been used to pay
Things required every day
Bank’s decided to foreclose
Christmas shouldn’t be morose
T’is a time for love and sharing
For enjoyment and for caring
All dressed up in Sunday best
Walk to church, to get blessed
And seek guidance from above
Knowing He will send His love
Midnight Mass comes to an end
Walk from church, try to pretend
Everything will be okay
Wish all a Happy Christmas Day
From the church good friends appear
Carrying baskets of good cheer
Food and drinks; turkey and ham
Special gifts for each of them
Mum and Dad begin to cry
There is not an eye that’s dry
Hugs and kisses all around
Christmas well wishes abound

Christmas well wishes abound
Children jumping in pure joy
Thrilled with each and every toy
Priest blessing their family
Underneath the Christmas tree
Christmas day has turned out fine
Children’s eyes sparkle and shine
Mum and Dad now confident
All good things are heaven sent
Putting their faith in God above
He will bless them with His love
Gather round the Christmas tree
Sing “Hallelujah” in perfect harmony
Children jumping in pure joy Thrilled with each and every toy
Priest blessing their family
Underneath the Christmas tree

Mum and Dad now confident
All good things are heaven sent
Putting their faith in God above He will bless them with His love
Gather round the Christmas tree
Sing “Hallelujah” in perfect harmony
