All the Joy of Christmas

All the joy of Christmas,
Dances in my heart.

All the love of Christmas,
Fills every little part.

All the happiness of Christmas,
Lives forever in me.

All the peace of Christmas,
Spent with close family.

All the excitement of Christmas,
Sings deep within my soul.

All the beauty of Christmas,
Makes me feel so whole.

Pink Fluffy Hat

I treated myself to a very cosy pink faux fur hat at the weekend, I saw it, loved it, tried it on, bought it and wore it straight away – “no bag please, I’m just going to wear it”. Below is a recent photo of me in my new winter’s hat.

So this has inspired my Christmas Poem for Day 12. I do hope you like it, it’s just a little sweet fun one.

Christmas is the Best

Christmas is fun,
for everyone.
Smiles in our eyes,
a happy surprise.
A pink fluffy hat,
wear it like that.
A champagne drink,
a mistletoe wink.
Love and joy,
a funny toy.
Christmas is the best,
it beats all the rest.

Christmas Poem by Maureen Turner

A very warm welcome to you on Day 11 of sharing a Christmas Poem with you. Today I am so delighted to share a Christmas Poem with you that was created by the wonderfully talented Maureen Turner. Maureen has been a Guest Blogger for us before on this Clarabelle Blog, here is a link to Maureen’s Guest Post from March 2013 where she shared with us her lovely poem entitled, “Happiness“. However, today is also about happiness, happiness at Christmas time and I just know you’ll love Maureen’s Christmas Poem, entitled “Christmas Comes But Once A Year”. A very special thank you to Maureen for sharing her happy spirit and creative talents with us here on this Clarabelle blog.

Christmas Comes But Once A Year

Christmas comes but once a year

The sleigh bells ring and Santa’s here

The tinsel, the tree for all to see

The presents we gave one for you, one for me

So let’s raise a glass to the year gone by

Did you laugh, did you cry or did it end on a high?

So all the best for 2014 to happiness and health

and to following your dream.

Thank You

A beautiful and loving welcome to you, thank you for visiting this Blog and welcome to Day 9 of my daily Christmas poems leading up to Christmas Day.

Christmas Candles

I love candles I think they add a real beauty and ambience to any room, especially at Christmas time. This next poem is about just that, I hope you like it.

The Christmas Candle

A flicker, a glow,
pure beauty on show.
That’s the Christmas Candle.

At peace, at one,
love for everyone.
That’s the Christmas Candle.

A glitter, a shine,
simply divine.
That’s the Christmas Candle.

A warmth, so bright,
On this Christmas night,
That’s the Christmas Candle.

Christmas Love

A very warm Christmas love welcome to you and to Day 8 of sharing a Christmas poem with you everyday until Christmas Day.

A Winter’s Day

I love to look out on a Winter’s Day, snow softly falling beneath the soft pink sky and unique tranquility in the air that you can really only feel and not describe with words. This next Christmas poem is inspired by just that. Stay snug and warm this Christmas. Christmas love to you, Clarabelle.

And then it snowed!

A child in the moment,
I look up to the sky.
A mesmerising pink,
I’m flyng high.

For in this beauty,
everything glowed.
Lost in the tranquility
and then it snowed!!

I run outside,
I wanted to feel.
Snowflakes on my face,
this magic was real.

Whiter than white,
but really not that cold.
Amongst this miracle scenery,
secret dreams I hold.

I look up to the light,
white blobs fall fast.
Connected to the now,
I hope this will last.

And as I close the door,
on this winter wonderland.
I feel blessed and so grateful,
as snowflakes melt in my hand.

Christmas Welcome

A very warm Christmas welcome to Day 6 of my Christmas poems leading up to Christmas Day. I do hope you like the next one, it may make you think about the precious love that surrounds you at Christmastime, embrace it with open arms because you are very blessed indeed.

On Christmas Morn

She looked out of the window,
on Christmas Day.
She remembered her past,
a time to pray.

For now she is older,
she is eighty three,
and sits alone,
there’s no “you and me”.

She had a love,
a husband that cared,
They loved Christmas,
everything was shared.

But he passed away,
10 years ago.
She remembers his smile,
and them dancing in the snow.

She isn’t sad,
she doesn’t feel lonely.
She is grateful for this life,
and her one and only.

She misses him much,
he’s always in her thoughts,
On Christmas morn,
He’d say “I love you lots”.

She awaits her carriage,
her wonderful son.
Who is so special,
he looks after his mum.

Today she is part of,
a family filled with joy.
With 4 happy grandchildren,
3 girls and a boy.

She loves them dearly,
they are her life.
A special Gran, a loving mother,
and in her heart a happy wife.

She tells them stories,
of times gone by.
She laughs with her grandchildren,
and enjoys a mince pie.

She feels amazing,
so precious and true,
To my hubby in heaven,
I will always love you.

Christmas Poetry, Day 5

A warm festive welcome to Day 5 of my Christmas poetry. Everyday between now and Christmas Day I will share with you a happy Christmas poem. I hope you enjoy today’s Christmas poem, called “Go Santa Go”.

Go Santa Go

Go Santa go,
Ride through the snow.
Come to my house,
Be as quiet as a mouse.

Go Santa go,
Let Rudolph glow.
His nose so bright.
A happy guiding light.

Go Santa go,
I love you, you know.
In your cosy red suit,
Coming down the chimney shoot.

Go Santa go,
Singing ho, ho, ho.
You are magic all around,
Snowy footprints on the ground.

Go Santa go,
I’ve left you 3 in a row.
Milk, carrots and a warm mince pie.
See you next year Santa, with love, goodbye.

Christmas Poetry, Day 4

A very warm Christmas welcome to Day 4 of my Christmas poems leading up to Christmas Day. Enjoy my beautiful friends and stay magical no matter what time of the year.

The Magic of Christmas

A sprinkle of fairy dust,
a twinkle in the eye.
A warm hello,
from the last goodbye.

A happy heart,
a Christmas smile.
The Magic of Christmas,
Goes on for a while.

A special time,
with loved ones to share,
Feelings of joy,
and love everywhere.

A time for giving,
and knowing what’s true,
The Magic of Christmas,
lives in me and you.

Christmas Poems Day 3

Welcome to day 3 of my Christmas poems. Everyday between now and Christmas Day I will share with you a lovely Christmas poem. This one today is about Christmas Love, a love that is so very special and true. Lots of love to you this Christmas. Clarabelle

My Christmas Wish

Holding hands,
Covered in snow.
Smiles on our faces,
A loving glow.

A sparkle in the sky,
A jewel at night.
Blessed in this beauty,
On this Christmas night.

Together as one,
Nothing else matters.
Laughing and giggling,
As mad as hatters.

A mistletoe kiss,
The warmest cuddle.
Under snowy rooftops,
and an ice freezing puddle,

Christmas is bliss,
Because of you.
You’re my Christmas wish.
so special and true.

For some reason I have been getting into the Christmas spirit and it’s only October, that’s really really early for me. So I’m planning ahead to Christmas day and created this Christmas Day poem just for you. Have a beautifully blessed Christmas. Love Clarabelle

On Christmas Day

Snowstars fall, on Christmas Day,

Twinkling Angels, guide the way.

Mr Robin, joins the choir,

Chocolate hearts, melt with desire.

Family cuddles, and present giving,

Special moments, happy living.

Warm and cozy, life is bliss,

Merry Christmas, to my mistletoe kiss.

***

Blessings glisten, on the tree,

Prayers of hope, and dreams of ‘we’.

Icy tracks, from the sleigh ride made,

Ho, ho, ho, to the Christmas Parade.

Love creates, magic in the air,

Treasure this Christmas moment, so wonderful and rare.
