WE WISH YOU A POET’S CHRISTMAS

(sung to We Wish You a Merry Christmas)

We wish you a Poet’s Christmas

We wish you a Poet’s Christmas

We wish you a Poet’s Christmas

And a Poet’s New Year!

Oh, send us a poet scribbling

Oh, send us a poet reading

Oh, send us a poet singing

And send them right here!

We won’t go until we’ve seen them

We won’t go until we met them

We won’t go until we’ve heard them

Please bring them right now!

We wish you a Poet’s Christmas

We wish you a Poet’s Christmas

We wish you a Poet’s Christmas

And a Poet’s New Year!

(alternate last verse)

We’ve all heard the poet’s reading

We’ve all heard the poet’s singing

We wish you a Poet’s Christmas

And a Poet’s New Year!
