Beauty of December
Is the weather calm and cool
When good friends remember,
About vinyl from the spool
Joys of Santas’s goodies
When we were small back then,
Mother and her cookies
Six men wiser than a pen.
No sweets sold in the market
Mother made them all,
Beating deadline target
Before the eve would fall.
Tailors were visited by many:
Crowds to get their wears,
There was mummy and granny
With children under their care.
There was a rush of decoration
That filled the streets with gay
Choirs practise their rendition
Before Christmas day.
Midnight saw costumes parade
With lace and trimmings rare,
Gentlemen suited and booted
Walking in style with their pair.
Salons too did brisk business
Ladies to look their best,
Not to show their riches
But for Christmas, to look the best.
Away in the Manger
A little child is laid;
With shepherds and three kings
Outside in a cold promenade.
