Yes its supposed to be a virtue
Good things come to those who wait
A couple of weeks in lieu
The 25th is coming, so remember that date…

Stage 2 – ‘Preparations ‘ (for the season) Day 8
Snowflakes fall,
Snowflakes dance
Snowflakes we are in awe
Snowflakes please take a chance
To twirl from the winter white sky
To dissolve on our nose
To inspire as we stand by
To shower and cover our Xmas clothes…

Stage 2 ‘Preparations ‘ (for the season) Day 7
Signs of the times are all around us now
Courageously we have nothing to hide
Huge outpourings of love is what’s allowed
Fearlessly promote this spirit with pride..

Stage 2 ‘preparations'(for the season) Day 6
Inside or out set the tone
Let everyone know it’s time
The decorations are up around our homes
As we ready the turkey and mulled wine…

Stage 1 (for the season) Day 5
Another day drifts past like snow
We’re one step nearer our goal
As we patiently wait
For that 25th date
The abandoned can come in from the cold..

Stage 1 (for the season) Day 4
So another day is chalked off
Excitedly we’ve opened our box
Time to get the gear from the loft
And maybe start wearing our xmas socks?

Stage 1 For the season (day 3)
The anticipation begins to build
Trees going up sets the tone
As we dress up the green
They are a sight to be seen
Shining hope into all our homes

Stage 1 – For the Season (Day 2)
Yes that’s right
We are counting down the days
Eleven months of darkness will become light
As the season of good cheer is here to stay…

Stage 1 for the Season(the first few days)
The first calendar window reveals
Our elf deserves a taste
Will the 2nd window gift appeal?
Be patient and not make haste…

The Tree (it’s starting to look a lot like…)
The Tree…
So December arrives
What does it mean?
We count down the days
Oh yes, we’re really keen
The garden centre beckons
Another arduous trip
Never mind the madding crowds
But watch the ice, in case you slip
You view fifty trees
They all look the same
In frustration you pick the first one
It’s the annual run around game
Now into the car
You bend, twist, and shove
Eating needles you hadn’t planned on
Once in, you raise your eyes up above
With ease you bring it home
Stand back – look at your icon with pride
Until you notice something is missing
You now want to run away and hide
Never mind, a job is done
The family will be pleased
No concern about the lopsided tree
Or being continually teased and teased…
