Everyone Loves Christmas

December 20, 2017

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. This week’s theme is Christmas, which is celebrated on December 25.

Today’s poem is a Christmas poem for children about how all the animals love Christmas.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

Yours,

Nick Gordon

Everyone loves Christmas,

Even flies and fleas,

Even seals and snakes and snails,

Beavers, bats, and bees.

Elephants love Christmas,

And hamsters, horses, hares,

Penguins, parrots, porpoises,

Belugas, bedbugs, bears.

Don't you just love Christmas?

All the world's at peace.

Wolves lie down with walruses

While goats give gifts to geese.
