Noel In Time
NOEL IN TIME
I’m neither pagan nor a druid
In the olden times it was Yule
And mead a much loved fluid
A log is better than daily gruel
Many believe in the Virgin birth
On the twenty fifth of December
It wasn’t then, for what it’s worth
Changed to fit, so you remember
With many hijacked pagan dates
Such that festivals neatly coincide
None should ever tempt the Fates
But many still love Christmastide
