There is something about mince pies:
They’re actually all in disguise!
With a cloak and a hat,
They whisper and chat:
Their real name: mince spies

Advent 10
A reindeer who’d never been kissed,
Said, “Mistletoe’s not to be missed!”
He puckered with glee,
At Mrs. Claus, you see
Now he’s been crossed off the list…
-
Advent 9
The commercialisation of Christmas,
Brings chaos to every business
For it’s not about joy,
But the sale of each toy
And the adversiting is quite relentless.
-
Advent 8
Whilst wrapping the gifts by the tree,
I got tangled in tape (woe is me!),
Though corners aren’t neat,
Each parcel’s a treat,
As it’s all wrapped with love, you see!
-
Advent 7
The wreath faces the wind and rain,
Yet beauty endures through the strain.
Its evergreen hue,
Says, “Hope’s ever true,”
Still steadfast through snow’s white domain.
-
Advent 6
The lights are a tangle on the floor,
I’ve untwisted them a hundred times or more.
They blink, then they die,
and I heave a deep sigh:
“I’ll just have to buy some more.”
-
Advent 5
I wonder what’s behind door five?
The magic of mornings revive:
A truffle? A toy?
Some small spark of joy?
It’s chocolate again: my waist won’t survive!
-
Advent 4
It’s the most wonderful time of the year,
With merriment and good cheer.
The tree’s looking grand,
With baubles well-planned,
And hope warms the dark of the year.
-
Advent 3
You’ve heard of Elf on the Shelf?
Personally, I haven’t myself.
Reminders to be good:
They’re misunderstood!
I’m not compelled by a toy elf!
-
Advent 2
The tree lights twinkle through the gloom,
A promise that joy will resume.
Though long is the night,
There glows still a light,
That whispers of hope to the room.
