WINKING, AND CHRISTMAS

Bells are ringing,
Children singing,
Fun is here to stay,
Snow is flying,
People buying,
For the happy day,
Mother's sewing,
Cheeks a-glowing,
Too much fun to last,
Presents hiding,
Kids are sliding,
Time is going fast,
Fingers prying,
Eyes are spying,
Christmas' almost here,
Grandma's baking,
Presents shaking,
At this time of year,
Children Listening,
Snow a-glistening,
Christmas cheers to you,
Snow-men winking,
Tree lights blinking,
Happy New Year too.
