The Children At Xmas

Eyes wide with utter delight
Mouth agape as Santa Arrives
Music to bring joy
So many toys to surprise
Wishes and dreams come true
Lets all wish and hope they do
Snow washes the country white
A chilly day a frosty night
Snowmen and Chestnuts
Christmas Cheer
All the wee ones are waiting here
For christmas to arrive
It cant come too soon
The road to Santa Claus
Is so faraway like the Moon
Sleep tight little ones
For all those toys
Are getting wrapped right now
For little girls and boys
