Christmas Greetings
Frosty n' White
Been frosty all the day agen, and harder still tonight,
And its isn't even Christmas, the fields all snowy white,
At least the mud's all hard and dry, can get about despite,
Water troughs and pipes and taps, froz for a good fortnight.
Three inch of snow it is no more, for the council no respite,
Chuck the salt about main roads; they think they have foresight,
But country lanes and all side roads, not a spreader in site,
Only takes one vehicle stuck, and the road its blocked all night.
Merry Christmas
The lights are up, turkey bought, and the cards are coming in,
Holly round the mantle shelf, decorations hung within,
For all the children presents now, dunt know where to start,
Buying now on line you can, money from ya card impart,
Each passing year they got older, laptop n' all gizmos' need,
Computer games and telephones, with built in camera plead,
Be glad now when its come and gone, good food good cheer n all,
Its just another day in life, as out of bed I crawl,
Stock to look and count and feed, all me life the same,
Exiting for the kids so young, for me excitements' getting tame,
So its from the misses and me, to all around the world,
Wishing you Happy Christmas, and Happy new year unfurled.
