Secrets Of Christmas



I think the happiest time of year
Surely is Christmas with all it's cheer.
Listening to carols being sung
Hearing sleigh bells gaily rung.

Children with innocent eyes, aglow;
Bundled up, to play in the snow.
Hoping to see Santa on Christmas night;
That jolly old fellow, in crimson and white.

Shoppers with packages under their arm
Hurrying home where the fire is warm;
Hiding the gifts so no one can see;
Keeping secrets, trimming the tree.

Bows on the puppy; bells on the cat;
Grandpa is sporting a red and white hat;
Grandma is knitting a holiday vest;
All of the children behaving their best.

Secrets of Christmas, they think I don't know
How Santa gets here, through all of the snow.
So I shan't tell them; wont spoil their intentions;
But Santa's wife comes along to give him directions!
