  • Advent 21

    Donner, Blitzen, Vixen, and Prancer,

    Comet and Cupid, Dasher, and Dancer,

    But which deer is left out?

    Come on, give a shout…

    Rudolph! That’s the answer!

  • Advent 20

    There once was a child fast asleep,

    While snow fell in drifts soft and deep.

    Saint Nick came around,

    Not making a sound,

    Piled presents in one festive heap!

  • Advent 19

    There once was a fellow named Nick,

    Whose sleigh flew astonishingly quick.

    With a laugh and a cheer,

    He spread joy every year,

    Then vanished from sight, swift and slick.

  • Advent 18

    At Christmas the lights softly glow,

    And carols drift sweetly and slow,

    The stockings are hung,

    The sleigh bells are rung,

    While outside lies glittering snow.

  • Advent 16

    A bauble so gaudy and bright,

    Looked dreadful by day and by night,

    Its glitter was cheap,

    It’s supposed to be chic!

    Yet hung on the tree out of spite.

  • Advent 15

    A fir tree was decked with delight,

    Its baubles all twinkled at night.

    It looked tree‑mendous,

    So bright and stupendous:

    A pun that was perfectly right!

  • Advent 14

    A choir sang loud in the square,

    Their carols rang crisp through the air.

    With harmonies bright,

    They warmed up the night,

    And spread Christmas joy everywhere.

  • Advent 12

    A skater went gliding with grace,

    spun circles all over the place.

    She leapt in the air,

    With panache and flair,

    And landed with snow on her face.

  • Advent 11

    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…
