Our Festive Traditions

Christmas below sunny blue skies,

No mulled wine or warm mince pies.

Sandy beaches instead of snow,

Yet twinkling lights and candles glow.

 

Palm-tree decked with tasteful trimmings,

Thoughtful gifts tied up with ribbons.

Carols entice a merry throng,

Brimming with love and joyful song.

 

Festive brunch with special treats,

Fresh panettone we get to eat.

Greetings with family far and wide,

Exchanging stories of Christmastide.

 

Afternoon at favourite beach,

Sighting sea life in the deep.

Finery donned when nighttime falls,

Dining in style to honour all.

 

Christmas traditions made over time,

With gratitude for life sublime.

Celebrating love, hope and joy,

Praising Jesus the baby boy.
