Christmas Poem: December’s Rush

I thought I would write a little Christmas poem for you all today. I’m not sure where it came from, a couple of lines popped in my head so I wrote them down and just kept adding bits as they came to me.

I would like to point out that I am by no means a poet, and I don’t claim to be. It’s just a little bit of fun 🙂

I have tried to capture the feelings I always get in December – a combination of stressful rushing around, and total excitement.

The fact I have to explain this confirms I am in no way a poet.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.

Christmas Poem: December’s Rush

Everyone is waiting to see what Santa’s bringing,

In the stores, tills are all ringing,

Everywhere, the lights are glowing,

People hoping it will soon be snowing.

Excited children, their eyes shining bright,

“Will Santa bring me a bike?” – “He Might!”,

Drinks are flowing, we all get merry,

The turkey is cooking, pass me the sherry!

People rushing around, all in a hurry,

Slow down, breathe, what’s the worry?,

Surrounded by loved ones, it’ll all turn out right,

Everyone happy, a beautiful sight.

Hustle and bustle, a whole lot of stress,

Wrapping paper everywhere, Oh dear! The mess,

Carolling, decorating, Midnight Mass,

Just try to remember this too shall pass!

What do you think of when you think of December? Did you like my Christmas poem? Let me know in the comments 🙂

Feel free to be honest, I’m pretty thick skinned and I am in no way taking this seriously. Like I said, it’s just a bit of fun. If anyone else has written their own Christmas poems, feel free to leave a link to the poem in your comment. I would love to have a read of some.
