Choose a special one from all the Christmas trees
Put pepper in the porridge
And see Grandpa sneeze

The elves are up early
And as busy as bees
The ribbons are curly

On all the presents, please
They’re all wrapped in sparkly gold paper
For Santa’s elves it’s all a caper

Little boys and girls believe it’s true
Don’t disappoint them
Then they’d be blue

Lights on the tree
It’s like fairyland
Tinsel and baubles

We do what we can

Perhaps a dance around the tree
Carols we sing on the count of three

A hearty meal together we share
We’re all gathered for each other to care

When it’s all over

And we’ve got our toys
Even the grown-ups
Act like little girls and boys

Don’t feel alone on Christmas day
Don’t be sad and hear what I say
Listen to me and don’t be blue
“know that we are loving you”

Certificate U
Love

new Parson Thru Hello! No! in magazine,or paper. It used to be a ball of string,or make a ball,cat's love shiny things,or belts, really devotion of love,play with them. Time essence,given. When small I stayed over elderly couple,loved me play with chestnuts and a toasting fork,their cat,also had miniature carousel,horses go round. My belated pop,paint their bungalow,got me stay over,from serious illness three out six us got then, going around in those times. Probably from camp school maybe swimming pools,children undernourished then. Cat 'Nicky' would hook Sprats,down from bowl of water think,to dog, 'Laddie' I was about 10 years old. All clothes bought for me,like Cinderella dressed top too bottom,like a Queen,come stay of week-end. Everything was hung up,put away. Go home to parents and family eight. wind up for it. Loving touch for all and humans counts really. But school used bit pinch salt in Semolina lumpy pudding,for variety if too sweet. Someone once said slice of cheese fruit cake,takes away richness,what! it is nice. I once knew a child,liked jam and cheese sandwiches,yuck!nice. Now cooks use many things,ingredients spice things up. Have a good christmas. Thanks comment. Toodle loo. julie x
