Today we’re outside fixing bulbs,
To shine at Christmas time,
I’m looking closely at next door’s,
But getting on with mine.
I like to put on quite a show,
But keep it neat and chic,
I start on Advent Sunday
And it takes about a week.
I don’t go in for reindeers,
Or snowmen on the roof,
Just garden lighting with a bit
Of sparkle in all truth.
Bring some light into the world,
To chase the dark away.
And twinkle like a Christmas star,
For Santa’s on his way.
