Christmas Lights Poem by Angela Wybrow

Houses are decked with Christmas lights,
Which brighten up the long winter nights;
The colourful lights flicker and flash -
They fizz and whizz, they dance and dash.

Some light up section by section,
While others run in all directions;
Round and round, some of them race –
Seemingly caught in an endless chase.

In all directions, the coloured lights flow -
They brighten my mood with their gleeful glow.
There’s red, blue, purple, yellow and green;
There are diff’rent designs and diff’rent themes.

Houses and gardens are beautifully beaming
With Christmas lights so joyfully gleaming.
The lights, they give a welcome so warm;
They light the night from dusk until dawn.
