It is nice to see so many with the Xmas spirit and sharing all the wonderful

inspirational sayings and poems, for all seasons and all occasions, yes ... 
I am a sappy sort, lol. It has been great that I have been able to add a few 
new Xmas poems to my collection. Thanks to all of you for sharing,
big Xmas hugs,

Cute Christmas Poem

I made myself a snowball,
as perfect as can be

I thought I'd keep it as a pet,
and let it sleep with me

I made it some pajamas,
and a pillow for its head

then last night it ran away,
but first it wet the bed!!!


and one more for good luck .............



Merry Christmas!

Christmas wises tried and true
I'm sending now, just for you...
a little love, a little cheer,
and wishes for a great New Year!
Hope Santa brings you gifts galore
with more surprises still in store.
May all your Christmas dreams come true.
and may God's blessings be yours too!
