CHRISTMAS BELLS

Christmas bells

Of Genus Blandfordia

Orange or crimson

Whose large flowers

Brighten the season 

CHRISTMAS CACTUS

 

The Christmas cactus

The winter-bloomer

Its jointed flat segments

Look like experiments

Made by a young boy

With a construction set toy

But the rose-purple flowers

Light up the winter hours

RED BREASTED ROBIN

 

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

WHITE BERRIES

 

White berries grow

In abundance

On the mistletoe

As the snow falls

Nature’s bounty

On the bough

Mother Nature

Stocking her Larder

For the long bitter

Winter to come

RED BERRIES

Red Berries grow

In abundance

On the holly bush

As the snow falls

Nature’s bounty

On the bough

Mother Nature

Stocking her Larder

For the long bitter

Winter to come 

CHRISTMAS ROSE

 

Christmas rose

The Evergreen beauty

Winter-blooming flowers

Of white or purplish hue

In wide display

Decorate the European

Landscape at Christmas

CHRISTMAS HOLLY

 

Christmas Holly

Evergreen tree

Christmas Holly

Leaves are prickly

Cut fresh Holly

Full of red berries

Help to make

The season merry
