Christmas poems are the spice of the Christmas holiday. And,
what's more, they can be enjoyed all year round. Poems lead you
down imagination's road to a place of deeper thought,
entertainment, and sometimes laughter.
When you read these Christmas lyrics, try to notice or picture
what is happening in your mind. After all, you may want to take
the journey down imagination's road more than one time. It's a
good way to escape the everydayness of life. It relieves the
mind of pressure and worry as you leave the world behind and
travel down a new and surprising sphere of sight.
The following poems about Christmas were written with your
pleasure in mind – enjoy!
Funny Christmas Poetry No. 1
– The Good Little Christmas Tree
![]() The Night Before Christmas Mad Libs Poem Game |
This one supposes that the Christmas tree is somewhat alive and
doing a chore. Of course, the tree may be a living tree that was
cut down, or an artificial tree, it doesn't matter.
The Christmas tree has a job to do – and a tree has to do
what a tree has to do, right!
You are a good little Christmas tree.
You are guarding the presents well
From little hands and sneakery,
So Christmas morn will go well
A Christmas surprise under the small tree sleeps
And here are the all the secrets the little tree keeps:
There is a truck for Brandon tucked away in a box
And a doll for little Jill,
Knitting needles for Grandma and for Grandpa some socks.
But for Mom and Dad, the bill.

Christmas Love Poem No. 2
– Time for Kisses & Cuddles
This one is only a four liner, but evocative just the same.
Christmas is the time for love relationships. If you are not in
one when this season arrives, you usually wish you were. There
is something about a warm embrace and a close loving
relationship at Christmas to make that apple cider seem even
more delicious.
Plus, in many parts of the world Christmas time is cold, and
having someone to be close with and stay warm with is just so
nice. Or, failing that, reading a couple of cute little
Christmas love poems may spur you on to doing what it takes to
find someone as fast as you dare:
Won't you give me a Christmas huddle
Topped with a kiss and hug?
Christmas is the time to cuddle.
Christmas is the time for love.

Funny Christmas Lyrics No. 3
– Where Do They All Go the Rest of the Year?
Do you ever wonder what Santa's reindeer and elves do during
the year between each Christmas?
Of course we know Santa is busy planning next year's Christmas
and watching girls and boys to see how 'good' (whatever that
means) they are during the year. But what do the reindeer and
elves do?
This is not one of those funny poems that has all the answers,
but read this humorous Christmas poem and see if you can get any
ideas:
What do the reindeer do all year
When they aren't pulling Santa's sleigh?
Do they rest and sleep, or do they party and play?
What do the elves do all year
Before they start making Christmas toys?
Do they go to toy school or play with elf girls and boys?

Christmasy Love Poetry No. 4
– Giving Ourselves
Being rejected by loved ones hurts any time of year, but it
might just be even worse during the Christmas season.
This is one of those Christmas love poems that illustrate the
feelings of a rejected person at Christmastime. Have you ever
had to ask questions like those in this poem? Are you asking
them now?
If so, we do wish this situation turned around soon into a happy
embrace of union – or reunion. Until then, enjoy yet another of
the Christmas love poems, or, perhaps more precisely: hopeful,
sad Christmas love poems …
Where is the fun, Hon?
It's Christmas Day.
Where are the presents, Hon?
It's Christmas Day.
Where is your love, Hon?
It's Christmas Day.
Why is it so empty, Hon?
It's Christmas Day.
Just give me yourself, Hon!
And it will be Christmas Day.

Cute Christmas Love Poem No. 5
– Watch Out for The Christmas Angel
No one is perfect. No one does only what is right and good
(again – whatever that means).
Most WANT to do what is right and good, but things can get
confusing, particularly if your culture happens to condemn
something that your heart tells you is right. When your desires
and your upbringing (indoctrination) are at odds, what is right
and good may be hard to see.
As Christmas poetry goes, this one is a cute variety:
There is a Christmas angel
At the top of our Christmas tree.
She looks constantly down from above.
She sees all about you and me.
I am glad that angel can't talk
For she sees everything we do.
Hopefully she's doesn't have a camera,
Bad news for me and you.

Short'n Funny Poem about Christmas No. 6
– Where's All the Candy?
Have you noticed that there are more treats available during
the Christmas holiday? In seems that everywhere you turn there
are candy and cookies and everything sweet you can imagine, not
mentioning the salty things like pretzels and butter popcorn?
Once the holiday is over you may miss all the goodies and suffer
severe symptoms of withdrawal.
I'm addicted to Christmas candy,
I want to eat it all the year long.
But to my horror and craving
Before the next Christmas it's gone.

Inspirational Christmas Lyrics No. 7
This is a very powerful poem that lifts you up and makes you
think:
At Christmas we rejoice
But if you had the choice
Between worlds in which to appear
Would you really choose to do it here?
Someone did get born on a sill, silent night
To pierce the darkness with a bright, shining light
So whether you're piss poor or real well-to-do
Consider if that someone just might be you …
Too

Inspirational Christmas Lyrics No. 8
– Just Relax and Have a Cookie
If your life right now was a cookie, which kind of cookie
would it be? Every Christmas you will probably eat more than one
cookie, so what follows next is a Christmas cookie poem.
A poem about cookies, yes, that sounds a bit weird, and perhaps
it is. But there a so many different kinds of cookies, and there
are so many different kinds of life experience. Like the seasons
it changes at regular (or maybe irregular) intervals.
Some seasons of your life are outwardly 'good' and some are
outwardly 'bad'. You will live through both types, and those in
between too, and as you live, you experience. What you
experience, however, is up to you.
You have the choice to always try to find the unique taste – the
learning experience – of every life cookie you eat. Even during
the spans of time that seems to be void of anything important.
If you want, you can make them important.
Anyway, in this one the meter is funny. It changes.
Though there is no rhyme in the first part, it has a common
thread throughout the poem that is a rhyme in itself – it has a
meter of meaning.
The second, shorter part does rhyme, and the interesting
totality makes this either inspirational or funny.
Please read it and see for yourself which category YOU think it
belongs in:
When I eat sugar cookies, it reminds me of love.
When I eat gingersnap cookies, it reminds me of the biting
things of life.
When I eat gumdrop cookies, it reminds me of persistence.
When I eat gingerbread men, it reminds me of relationships.
When I eat butter cookies, it reminds me of the unknown parts of
life.
When I eat iced cookies, it reminds me of safety.
So as you live your life
In times of strife
And feel like a rookie
Just relax and have a cookie!

Funny and Ironic Christmas Poetry No. 9
As Christmas season approaches some people feel more dread
than merriment.
Rather than saying 'Ho ho ho' they say 'Oh no no'. If you are
about to host the annual Christmas dinner and celebration you
may know the feeling.
If your family has a fondness for bickering or, worse, big
emotional dramas where various members insist you take sides
against other family members you SURELY know the feeling. Oh, to
be a Zen master!
But very few of us are. Instead we can use poems, and
particularly funny ones to let off some steam:
Oh dear, oh dear,
Feel free to fear
It's that time of year
Christmas time is here
Prepare to get cosy with the next of kin
For friends and family are closing in
Once again tradition has won
There's nowhere to hide, nowhere to run
So let's just HOPE it will be a lot of fun
And that Grandpa won't reach for his gun!

A Traditional Short Poem about Christmas No. 10
– The Aftermath
All good things come to a close, even the Christmas holiday
and Christmas Day itself. The last poem is one of the short
Christmas poems. It is about the peaceful rest one has after the
big day draws tiredly to a close.
The excitement ends, and the busy day begins to crawl to its
end. You look back over the day and feel relief – and perhaps
contentment, too.
Hopefully everything in your Christmas happened as planned – or
something like it. That's what the tenth and final of the poems
about Christmas on this page is about. Contentment.
The turkey finished cooking in time for the Christmas meal, the
cake didn't fall, and the dinner rolls didn't even get burned!
Everybody seemed to enjoy it. This was truly a successful
Christmas. Planning and directing the Christmas holiday is a
true piece of art, to be treasured in the heart and mind
forever.
Merry Christmas and good night.
The children are finally in bed.
It has been a good Christmas, merry and bright.
A successful Christmas, well said!
