I started out to write a song. Instead this came out. Anybody out there wanna have a go?
There Are So Many Xmas Songs
“You better watch out,
You better not shout;
You better not cry –
I’m telling you why.
Santa Claus is coming to town.”
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
There are so many Xmas songs
To sing along to.
Messages of cheer and legend:
Santa land and fairy land
Bonded by a band of reindeer
Flying low to clear each household,
Santa chuckling all the way,
Rounding globe the mystery.
Package giving,
Living in the coming light –
Santa driving all the night
Never disappearing or appearing.
Every year and filled with fervour
We still sing
About his coming.
Santa Claus, Saint Nicholas –
Another a term for Father Christmas.
