"Of All the Bonding in Life" by Unknown

A perfect family time is what Christmas is all about,
There is happiness all around,
Without any don’ts,
It becomes all the more special with your family,
Because they are a reason for joy,
So, this Christmas do enjoy,
With all of them,
Merry Christmas to you and your family!

"For my Sister" by Simon Clark

For my sister this Christmas,
I wish joy and laughter,
I wish you happiness and love,
For now and forever and ever-after,
I wish you the bliss this season brings,
Everyday of your life,
Every second you live,
For my sister this Christmas,
I wish these wondrous things.

"I’ve been waiting for Christmas" by Unknown

I’ve been waiting for Christmas,
And it’s almost here.
I’ve been waiting for Christmas,
Santa’s getting near.

Can’t you hear the sleigh bells ringing?
Reindeer up so high.
Can’t you hear the children singing,
As they watch the sky?
