Christmas-Time
(By CORAL THORPE)
OH the joys of Christmas time,
Oft have they been put in rhyme,
Lesson books are put away,
Sport's the order of the day.
City folk hie to the hills,
. Business men forget their bills,
Familcs again unite,
Picnics are the fashion qnite.
Shops are full of gifts, and toys.
Suitable for girls and boys.
Parcels kept out of the way,
All appear on Christmas Day.
Prize of 5/- to CORAL THORPE, Kangarilla,
KL,A., for this original verse,
