Most Liked Holidays Poems (355)

"Carol of the Bells", from faraway Ukraine
"Hark! The Herald Angels Sing", we hear again, and again
"Rocking Carol", though familiar, is an old Czech tune
"I Heard the Bells”, we all enjoy, and cannot be heard too soon

"Silent Night", Holy Night, from Austria to thee
"Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum", about the Christmas tree
"Mary's Boy Child", in the charts, year on year, on year
"Angels We Have Heard on High", always brings a tear

"See, Amid the Winter's Snow", and we end right here

Light now the fires that warm the hearth;
Mistress Winter dons her long white gown.
Light now the candle of remembrance,
for another year has circled around.

See the faces of those here gathered,
for love, too, can make the cold hearth warm.
Huddle all near and share your stories,
for outside blows the first winter storm.

Make now your peace and speak forgiveness.
In your sweetest voice, sing Yuletide song.
Grab and hold dear these precious moments,
for ne’er again shall they come along.

Recognize that the cold grey landscape,
holds bits of ourselves that change or die.
There in the stillness we find our truth;
new bits of wisdom that never lie.

Remember, release, then joyful be
this festive, unfolding Solstice night.
A new path before us - blessed be!
The past sleeps covered in Winter’s white.

Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the jail
Lots of creatures were stirring
Even a vengeful inmate with a nail
The toilet paper was hung by the communal toilet without care
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there
The prisoners were nustled unsafe in their beds
While visions of freedom danced in their heads
And I in my orange prison uniform and the guard in her cap
Wished we could settle down for a long winter's nap
When up from the roof there arose such a clatter
The prison guard sprang from her chair to see what was the matter
I knew that someone was up on that roof so lively and quick
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick
And then in the twinkling I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each tiny hoof
Then when I felt all would be well
In St. Nicholson came into our cell
He spoke a few words and went straight to his work
Then he exclaimed like a jerk
Deadbeat dads who make kids cry
Bad check writers who steal and lie
Drunk drivers who maim and make people fret
You all deserve the baloney sandwich you're going to get
But I come here to give you more than words
I also give you my Christmas turds
Then he laid a finger aside of his nose
And majically a chimney arose
Up he went and I heard him exclaim as he faded from sight
Merry Christmas to everyone else and I wish them all well
But as for you
You can all go to hell!

Happy holy birthday Jesus,
wishing you a Merry Christmas,
Bless my family in poetry corner,
From those i know and across borders!

Tonight i praise my Holy Father,
God of Isreal and the Saviour,
Holy , holy , holy be thy Name,
for now and forever the same!

Thank you for guidance,
Our Holiest Spirit,
and tears of joy i shed,
and paint this place Red!

Tonight we are as one,
Poetry member each and everyone!
I share this special dedication,
with my poetry family contribution.

Bless the world and save our souls,
May our hearts never grow cold,
May the spirit burn with divine love,
we share and greet with grace from above.

Amen ...Amen thy holy day we celebrate,
Amen...amen thy name we say today,
Amen ...amen with every man , woman and child,
Amen ..amen ...Merry Christmas one and ALL !!!

It's Christmas time
only coming once a year
Salvation Army people singing
soon family will be here...

Light the candles
let's decorate the tree
lot's of nice presents
to open for you and me...

Baby Santa Claus is coming
Jingle Bells times three
I hear you in the kitchen
cooking up a Christmas Jamboree...

It's all about peace on earth
there's not many stockings on the wall
love is what counts baby
good will towards all...

Just you and me
a fire before the tree
as I cuddle with you
on this Christmas Jamboree..

Though I celebrate Christmas and you may celebrate something else,
may the pillars of goodness and love in all faiths serve as foundations
for bridges of knowledge and understanding to be built toward compassion.
Rejoice! Darkness is bent toward light by winter’s solstice transformations.

To all those individuals behind monikers with profiles set
to criteria through which my thank-you notes cannot get,
each of you should know that your kind words are valued
and your feedback heard, most gratefully, word for word.

To all of the poets and others who read, to a poster’s delight,
and take time to leave comments, your appreciation to show
(for it is through your kind comments each poet does grow),
I wish you Happy Holidays and bid you a peaceful good-night.

Enjoy your Festive Holiday
May your New Year wishes come true
hugs

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
How your paths have enlightened me
You were just a seed to one day sprout
Then take me to higher places without a doubt
I saw you all alone, but standing tough
So I brought you here and I lit you up
You kept me in spirit all these lonely nights
With your star above always shining bright
Filling me with beauty beyond our skies
Into greener planes and Northern Lights
Bringing Christmas joy into my home
That soon will fill with cheerful tone
But for now we'll go back inside
Because my family just arrived
And when they put their gifts beneath that other tree
Just remember it will always be only you and me

Merry ChristmaKwanzukkah
