What I Like About Christmas
It’s Christmas Eve and I can’t sleep.
I am so excited so I try to count sheep.
But it did not help so I left my room.
But then I realized that Santa would be here soon.
I wait and wait but there is no sign.
I fell asleep and woke up in the morning.
I saw 18 presents 5 of them were mine.
I hear a “ho ho” and knew it was Santa.
I threw him a letter and it said.
Thank you!
PETER MITZEL
Christmas Is Magic Because ...
Blow out the wick, let’s go to bed.
It’s Christmas Eve like the Bible said.
On that night three wise men came,
None of them were seeking fame.
And what these three kings came to see
Was the Savior born for you and me.
Many sheep, a horse, a cow,
The people too went to kneel and bow.
Mary and Joseph welcomed each,
To meet the One who would someday teach.
The world soon would learn to love
With help from God up above.
JOHN ELLINGHOUSE
Christmas
Christmas is magic because
Santa goes around the world
each and every year,
People know that he is very near.
Reindeer land on the roof,
You can hear each little hoof.
You try to sleep and not let out a peep,
Then finally morning comes and you
run down the stairs and see what the
big guy has left for you there.
JILL MADSEN
Christmas is the Best
To have fun with your family.
To have fun with friends.
Putting up the Christmas tree.
Doing the decorations.
Waiting for Santa.
Going snowboarding.
Have a snowball fight
with your friends.
Sledding with your friends
and family and waiting
for the coming of Jesus.
CHELSEA D. TODD
What Christmas Is All About
Christmas Day is filled with love,
coming from our God above.
Who sent us Jesus on this day,
born in a manger filled with hay.
Decorating the Christmas tree,
makes my spirit feel so free.
Families gather all around,
to wait his coming on this
earthly ground.
Christmas day is full of joy,
for all the good little girls and boys.
LUKE MOHORCICH
Christmas
It’s Christmas time,
People like to have a rhyme,
People watch Santa fly right by,
When you watch him he’s in the sky.
The true meaning of Christmas is Jesus,
He never will leave us,
Jingle, jingle there they come,
Reindeer come so cold they are numb!
TOMMY SELLMAN
Christmas
The tree in my room is very nice
Decorations, candles,
snow globes and lights.
Christmas Eve is quite a night
With gag gifts, food and
Santa’s all night flight.
Morning comes early,
I can’t sleep anymore
I race to the tree and
there are presents galore.
I especially like the presents
he leaves under the tree
I can’t wait to find out
how many are for me.
Candy canes, presents
and chocolates are great,
But most important is my family
and they really rate.
Jesus’ birth comes once a year
I am thankful for his love,
his hope, his cheer.
JACOB BYRNE
