The Sights and Sounds

The sights and sounds at Christmas time, fill our hearts with cheer A special time when family and friends are gathered near The shops play lots of Christmas tunes to put us in the mood As shoppers search for special gifts and lots of festive food Each house is all dressed up with lights that twinkle through the night And windows lit with Christmas trees are such a pretty sight The stockings are all laid out straight upon the mantle place And candy canes upon the tree light up a tiny face Some Moms are busy baking treats to share on Christmas day And happy voices fill the house as children start to play There's turkey in the oven and the smell of fresh baked bread Then later on a little one is ready for her bed. I now will end my little rhyme with wishes all to you A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year too :-)

Glad you enjoyed it Ann :-) My great grandfather also wrote poems in rhyme. I often wonder if he comes through and guides my hand in writing them.

this is very cute and it's exactly describing how Christmas is in the western culture.

Thanks Andrea :-) Yes it definitely describes western culture Christmas. I was actually wondering whether to add in about how those turkey dinners tend to make us dose off. Lol
