The last month of the year, December, sees shorter and colder days. But, also celebrates the occasion of Christmas and the end of another year. Let these December poems remind you of this month of the year.
When suns are low and nights are long
And winds bring wild alarms,
Through the darkness comes the Queen of the Year
In all her peerless charms,--
December, fair and holly-crowned,
With the Christ-child in her arms.
The maiden months are a stately train,
Veiled in the spotless snow,
Or decked with the bloom of Paradise
What time the roses blow,
Or wreathed with the vine and the yellow wheat
When the noons of harvest glow.
But, oh, the joy of the rolling year,
The queen with peerless charms,
Is she who comes through the waning light
To keep the world from harms,--
December, fair and holly-crowned,
With the Christ-child in her arms.
December the 12th month of the year
Brings happiness and fear.
Fear of shorter days,
Oh, drive the darkness away.
But happiness is found in the Christmas lights
Oh, how they shine and they are so bright.
The days are getting colder but snuggle up we do
The cuddly blanket is warm and soft too.
December marks the end of the year
We spend the 31st with friends who are dear
We celebrate as the end draws near
And the beginning of a brand new year.
D ance around the Christmas tree
E at and be merry and you'll see
C hristmas day gets closer each day
E xcitement is felt by kids in every way
M ake a difference in the lives of those in need
B rotherhood of man is felt, and take heed
E perience the colder weather and the first snowfall
R ejoice the Christ-child was born to save us all!
