Merry Christmas memories
Merry Christmas memories
*
My feet firmly on the group kissing the morning sunshine of a merry Christmas with my mandatory love for my sisters
Mama taught us the importance, I close my eyes and kiss the best memories
Christmas carols siblings singing
Family never missing the fun of the day
Conjuror with tricks still tingling my age
Dad would make money magically appear in my ear and I couldn't get the trick I'd get the laughter only
Laughter bourne in the spirit of family
Prickling tears of joy and of belonging
Guiding us to a merry Christmas of bliss
Believing in father Christmas and
tooth fairies a real joy of childhood
A good laughter decorating the tree too
Don't open your presents yet, was exciting
Though you didn't witness the arrival of father Christmas you could see the proof
You've been a good boy, there's your present with your name on it and you wanna shake it but it's not the time yet
Go wash up first and wear your new clothes
