By Carol Ann Duffy On the night before Christmas, a child in a house, As the whole family slept, behaved just like a mouse . . . And crept on soft toes down red-carpeted stairs. Her hand held the paw of her favourite bear. The Christmas tree posed with its lights in its arms, Newly tinselled and baubled with glittering charms; Flirting in flickers ...
By Clement Clarke Moore 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all thro’ the house, Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugar plums danc’d in their heads, And Mama in her ‘ke...
By Christina Rossetti Love came down at Christmas, Love all lovely, Love Divine; Love was born at Christmas, Star and angels gave the sign. Worship we the Godhead, Love Incarnate, Love Divine; Worship we our Jesus: But wherewith for sacred sign? Love shall be our token, Love be yours and love be mine, Love to God and all men, Love for plea and gift...
By Timothy Tocher Santa needs new reindeer. The first bunch has grown old. Dasher has arthritis; Comet hates the cold. Prancer's sick of staring at Dancer's big behind. Cupid married Blitzen and Donder lost his mind. Dancer's mad at Vixen for stepping on his toes. Vixen's being thrown out— she laughed at Rudolph's nose. If you are a reindeer we hop...
By Clare Bevan I'm one of Herod's Henchmen. We don't have much to say, We just charge through the audience In a Henchman sort of way. We all wear woolly helmets To hide our hair and ears, And Wellingtons sprayed silver To match our tinfoil spears. Our swords are made of cardboard So blood will not be spilled If we trip and stab a parent When the ha...
By Marian Swinger It never snows at Christmas in that dry and dusty land. Instead of freezing blizzards, there are palms and drifting sands, and years ago a stable and a most unusual star and three wise men who followed it, by camel, not by car, while, sleepy on the quiet hills, a shepherd gave a cry. He'd seen a crowd of angels in the silent starl...
By A. A. Milne King John was not a good man — He had his little ways. And sometimes no one spoke to him For days and days and days. And men who came across him, When walking in the town, Gave him a supercilious stare, Or passed with noses in the air — And bad King John stood dumbly there, Blushing beneath his crown. King John was not a good man, An...

By Clive James It’s cold without the softness of a fall Of snow to give these scenes a common bond And though, besotted on a viewless rime, The ducks can do their standing-on-the-pond Routine that leaves you howling, all in all We need some snow to hush the whole thing up. The ducks can do their flatfoot-waterfool Mad act that leaves you helpless, ...
