THE POEMS:


1.

Christmas Joys

Christmas is filled with joy, and happiness
And the very best of all is contemplating
The memories of those close to us,

At Christmas we think of family and friends
Affectionately, realizing how blessed
We are to have them in our lives



2.

Wishes Dreams And Hopes

There's much, much more to Christmas
Than gift giving, enchantment, and happiness
It's the spirit of wonderful friends that brightens our days;
It's thoughtfulness and kindness we share everyday
It’s also wishing peace, and love around the world
And goodwill towards every man woman and child



3.

No More Giftwrapping

For children Christmas might be thought a tool,
To finally get that traintrack or mittens made of wool,

If this is the name for it: A way of getting a new blouse,
Instead of knowing you've banged your head on the wall of a gingerbread house,

The only present you need is those colors in anothers eyes,
When you see the smile on their face and that look of surprise.



4.

Christmas

Christmas fun is here again with time for love of family and friends.
Here the carols fill the air spreading spirit everywhere!

Christmas cards of Winnie The Pooh signed with love from me to you.
Houses shine with Christmas lights, reds, greens and icicle delights.

Children everywhere are anxious as Christmas morning smiles are priceless.
The warmth of Christmas fills our hearts so let's take it with us as Christmas departs.



5.

Christmas Lonely

Merry Christmas sleepy head from me to you in Teddy of red.
Could it be a puppy dog moving his dreamy leg?
Could it be a mechanical bear saying I love you this much?
No it’s simply just my heart beating for your touch
wrapped up for your hand only
to love away my Christmas lonely.



6.

Santa's Visit

Cupcakes and cookies sweet treats that delight,
All welcome dear Santa's short visit tonight,
As children will sit up to wait.

Then rubbing their eyes they awaken and yawn,
To find the surprises there just before dawn,
And crumbs that's been left on the plate.



7.

When Santa Arrives

When Northern winds blow
And we're covered in snow
The changes of seasons revives,

When harvest time ends
And Christmas begins
That's when dear Santa arrives.



8.

Our Wish For You

From all of us at JPiC
to everyone out there:
May you be healthy and safe,
with Joy - enough to spare!
We hope your Holiday Season
is filled with Love to share!



9.

Wishes

Whether you celebrate Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah,
or something else in turn,
our wish still stays the same-
for you to have Hope and Joy,
while the spirit of Love in this season brings
Peace to us all.



10.

New Year

As this year is coming to an end,
it's time to look back,
to see how we have grown.
We've all grown to be friends,
so Happy Holidays from all of us to you,
And may this next year bring us happiness to no end!
