Now that's Thanksgiving is over, I guess it's officially the Christmas season. So write a poem about some Christmas fun and the winner gets 10 zealies. And this time, all of you are going to be the judges! You have until Dec. 21th to submit your poems, and then I'd like you each to pawmail me who you think should win the zealies.
Good luck and gets those paws writin'! hamster dancehamster dance

A Dog's Christmas Wish List

Tell Santa I don't want a bone,
nor a squeaky toy.
For sure I'll know that they'll be gone,
by the first hour or the third.
No clothes will I put on the list,
cause' dogs do not wear clothes.
Neither would I write down treats,
for I do not have thumbs.
In my stockings,
I hope I have nothing,
for I ask for no more.
No more plushies,
and wubba buddies.
Even no more fluffy beds.
Every time at this year,
you'll see me wait for you.
I'll put out cookies,
and my list,
leaving them for you.
Oh Santa when you read my list,
oh please make it come true.
To have all homeless pets have homes,
Santa, grant this come true.

A Cat’s Christmas Dream
by Seána

On Christmas Eve, I snuggled in
My small and cozy bed
I closed my eyes and smiled a smile
And dreams swirled in my head.

Suddenly cold, I looked around
In a dark and dreary place
I saw a scene, a wondrous scene
And saw a lovely face.

A tiny babe was in the place
Where cattle eat their food
The straw was where the baby lay
Wrapped against the cold.

I came up close to look at him
And then he op’ed his eyes
I climbed right in, right next to him
To keep him warm and nice.

I felt a soft touch on my head
The babe’s mom smiled at me
And said, “I thank you, tiny cat
“For your gift so sweet and free.”

Then I heard a lovely song
From outside the dreary place
I saw an angel in the sky
She sang of wondrous peace

Some men with sheep came to the cave
They came from nearby places
They came to see the little babe
And they left with shining faces.

A kindly dog bowed to the babe
And stood guard at the door
The baby’s dad held up a torch
Which flickered to the floor.

Suddenly three strangers came
Dressed in their finest robes
They bowed unto the tiny babe
And gave their gifts of gold.

I closed my eyes in my wondrous dream
I cuddled close to him
I drifted back to my cozy home
While hearing a lovely hymn.

A loving feeling shown around
My home that Christmas Day
I knew the love came from the Babe
And it was here to stay.

THE TIME HAS COME

Can't you see?
Falling like the leaves off the sky..
I try to catch them,
I stumble and fall, than try again.
But, the men..
How blind they are!
They don't see them.
They don't need them!
So they say...
Is there a heaven?
Cause i hear a melody.
So soft...
Then i was told by a wren:
"The Angels are singing"
Amen...
Someone lit the candles.
The smell of incense.
So calm...
I'd like to purr a poem.
But i can't choose the words.
I'm just a cat between these
Two worlds.
...

The time has come!
The shooting star flew,
Sky turned to indigo blue
And i felt my tail shiver,
I could sense in the air the quiver!
The light filled the room,
And i saw in front of me:
All the animals
They run!
To greet,
To welcome
The One...
...

Can't you see?
Can't you hear?
I guess we animals have
That inner sense...
That can see far beyond
Above the humans Pond.

And i'd like to say that all the poems made me and mom do:
shock

Great job guys!!

Camping at Christmas - Ode to Meridian State Park

We don't have one Christmas tree,
We have thousands of those.
We are in the middle of the woods.

There is no star on top of the tree,
We have millions to see
Shining down from heaven above.

No manger scene created with barn animals there,
Instead we see all kinds of God's creatures abound
Sharing this place with us.

We think of the miracle of the past
And then everyday at sunset
We witness yet another.

The family sits around the campfire
With me in someone's lap,
Sharing Christmas tales and warmth.

We drive into the small town to view Christmas lights,
Then back to our campsite
Where the cedars bear ours.

Long walks into the woods in the crisp December air,
Seeing nature at its best.
This is the Christmas that we share.
