Christmas Is Coming

On the ground there's frost and snow
From the North the wind does blow.
Not a bird comes in sight;
Morning is as dark as night.

We put extra blankets on our bed
And wrap scarves around our head.
The Crib is renewed with crispy hay.
And Christmas presents are hidden away.

When Christmas comes, Oh what a noise.
Squeals of laughter from girls and boys.
The Christmas pudding goes up in flames.
Not only children play party games.
