This is my first idea for a Christmas carol for the school children Shean teaches. He wants two.
As I have remarked before, it is not easy to write a new Christmas carol.
Well, at least this is cheerful! Will read it to Jools, and see what he thinks.
Apologies to everyone who is still trying to get to grips with May.
Suns and moons and
stars are dancing,
waltzing in the sky.
Birds and songs and
hopes and wishes
flying round on high!
Hear the loud bells!
Hear the carols!
Sing the glory!
Sing the joy!
He is born
this Christmas morning!
Mary’s little boy!
Deer are running
in the forest
Hares leap for
the moon!
Tigers twirling,
Hippos whirling!
Crickets
strum the tune!
Hear the loud bells!
Hear the carols!
Sing the glory!
Sing the joy!
He is born
this Christmas morning!
Mary’s little boy!
Under earth the
worms are turning
Twisting with
the beat!
Moles step out in
velvet waistcoats
Underneath
our feet
Hear the loud bells!
Hear the carols!
Sing the glory!
Sing the joy!
He is born
this Christmas morning!
Mary’s little boy!
All creation
joins the shout of
Universal joy!
He is born
this Christmas morning!
Mary’s little boy!
