“Little Robin redbreast
Where can
you be?
Dear little
Robin
Come and
say hello to me”
“I can’t
“says the Robin
“The winter
is preventing me”
“Little
Robin redbreast
Where can
you be?
Dear little
Robin
Come and
say hello to me”
“I can’t
say hello to you
Because I’m
frozen to this tree”
Christmas ferns
Abundant
and evergreen
With
Pinnate leaves
In
lance-shaped fronds
Dense
clusters of
Featherlike
leaflets
In wide
display
Decorate
the
Christmas

Of North
America
Merry Bells of Christmas

yellow drooping
Bell-shaped

Red Breasted Robin
Sitting on
the fence
With snow
falling
God that
bird is dense
Sitting out
there exposed
Out in all
weathers
Trying to
look cute
As it
freezes its feathers
You are the bonniest child
Cute from
head to toe
You melt
our hearts
As you
joyfully go
For your
first time
Out to play
in the snow
I’m not looking for a white Christmas
For my life
is already a cold place
Bleak and
forbidding
So I have
no need of snow
Carpets of
white everywhere
Winter
fills my every day
My life is
perpetual winter
Because you
have taken my warmth
You were
the heart of me
You sent
the blood coursing through me
You were
the sun in my sky
Now my life
is tundra
And I am
just a frozen husk
Too numb to exist
Smoke curls from the chimneys,
And
dissolves into the grey
Then the clouds
in exchange
Release
snowflakes on the day
Soon the
air is full of white flakes
Filtering
the sounds of life away
The land is
soon under deep snow
Of
snowflakes released on the day
Oh pretty snowflake
Gentle on
my face
Oh delicate
beauty
Like
Belgian lace
Oh pretty
snowflake
Thing of
grace
You were
here
Now not a
trace
December, December
The snow has
come
Falling all
night long
Kids its
time to have some fun
December,
December
Children
playing in the snow
Skating and
sledding
Faces all
aglow
December,
December
More snow
will come
Then all
through the winter
Kids will
have more fun
But softly the myriad snow flakes fall
These
infinite flakes of purest white
Like pure
white down of angels wings
Floating
gently from heavens height
But this is
no heaven sent delight
This thing
of beauty that cruelly lingers
For harshly
touched is the naked earth
When
touched by winters icy fingers
A common native of Asia
And the
Himalayas
The Greeks
called
It Sarcococca
“The fleshy
berry”
We call it Christmas
Box
With its
large fragrant flowers
Blooming in
winter
Making the
stark
Christmas
garden, merry
Christmas rose
The Evergreen
beauty
Winter-blooming
flowers
Of white or
purplish hue
In wide
display
Decorate
the European
Landscape
at Christmas
The Christmas star
Festively
untypical
Having
poisonous milk
And being
tropical
But scarlet
petal-like leaves
Make them
appear more topical
And star
shaped flowers
Are more
decoratively typical
Christmas Holly
Evergreen
tree
Christmas
Holly
Leaves are
prickly
Cut fresh
Holly
Full of red
berries
Help to
make
The season
merry
The Christmas green
Festively
untypical
It’s just a
club moss
With
creeping stems
Similar to
ferns
With erect
branches
It has no
scarlet hues
Nor star
shaped flowers
It’s quite
unremarkably
Just
another evergreen
The Christmas flower
Festively untypical
Having
poisonous milk
And being
tropical
But scarlet
petal-like leaves
Make them
appear more topical
The Christmas berry
Evergreen
and spiny
With
flowers of every hue
From white
to blue
With
abundant berries
Bright red
as cherries
The Christmas bush
Is
Australian obviously
And isn’t
really a bush at all
It’s in
fact a shrub or tree
With red
flowers for selection
As
Christmas decoration
The Christmas Begonia
The
winter-bloomer
Whose large
pink flowers
Light up
the winter hours
