Snowflakes fall thick and white,
Children have a snowball fight,
Skates fly by very fast,
Every Christmas in the past.
Christ was born on this night,
In the window burns a light,
Singing carols in the snow,
Of Christmas past long long ago.
Hannah Quinn
Christmas Long Ago
Snowing heavily all day long,
Children singing Christmas songs,
All the kids playing in the snow,
Every Christmas a long time ago.
Children playing with the holly,
Each one looking awfully jolly,
Children playing near the pond,
Wishing for a Christmas wand.
Fergal O'Grady
Fairy lights shining brightly,
Christmas hymns playing lightly,
Little children in their beds,
With happy thoughts going through their heads.
Almost time for Santa's visit,
Chrisrmas dinner should taste exquisite,
Snow is falling all around,
Our little town not making a sound.
Ann O'Grady
Christmas Long Ago
Snow falling on the ground,
Children's excitement at what they found,
Children carolling on St.Stephen's Day,
Midnight mass they go out to pray.
Turkey roasting in the oven,
Christmas morning children pushing and shoving,
Rooftops covered from head to toe,
That's Christmas long long ago.
Paul Fogarty
Putting candles in jam jars,
Going to mass in your carts,
Making snowmen out of snow,
Every Christmas long ago.
Sitting under the Christmas tree,
Little Children laughing with glee,
Santa saying ho,ho,ho,
Every Christmas long long ago.
