There’s a sense of something really good this Christmas, There’s a feeling in the air that it’s OK The anticipation’s there about ….a happiness out there And the weather outlook’s brilliant for the day.
Mother’s planning a big roast for Christmas dinner There’ll be sparkles and bright spangles on the tree, Underneath there’s quite a pile, gaily wrapped to bring a smile And a kiss beneath the mistletoe for me?
Spare a thought for all poor souls who have nobody Gift-wrap a parcel or two for the disowned, To make some unknown person smile advances Christmas by a mile And really brightens up the prospects for the un-homed.
It’s a day to gift good wishes to your loved ones Share some cold beers in the sunshine on the deck, And when we’ve eaten to excess and helped mum clean up the mess There will be time to take a snooze…and what the heck!
So to all our friends, across this world, aplenty, May we take this opportunity to say We hope your Christmas be as good as we know it really should And may Santa gift you happiness ….to stay!
MERRY CHRISTMAS
