Poem of the Week!

17/12/2020

 

'The Little Christmas Trees'
by Rodney Bennett.
From 'Poems for Christmas', compiled by Jill Bennett,
​ illustrated by Ian Beck

Ten little Christmas trees
a-growing in a line.
The first went to Bedfordshire,
And that left only nine.

Nine little Christmas trees
all found it long to wait.
The second went to Monmouthshire,
And that left only eight.

Eight  little Christmas trees said,
"Christmas will be heaven."
the third went to London Town,
and that left only seven.

Seven little Christmas trees,
and all as straight as sticks!
the fourth went to Oxfordshire,
And that left only six.

Six  little Christmas trees,
all growing and alive!
the fifth went to Lancashire,
and that left only five.

Five  little Christmas trees said,
"Will they want some more?"
the sixth went to Devonshire,
And that left only four.

Four  little Christmas trees,
as sturdy as could be!
The seventh went to Scilly Isles,
And that left only three.

Three  little Christmas trees
all grew up and grew and grew,
the eighth went to Middlesex,
And that left only two.

Two  little Christmas trees,
December almost done!
The ninth went to Timbuctoo,
And that left only one.

One little Christmas tree,
feeling very small!
She came to our school,
And that was best of all.

Ten little Christmas trees,
with Christmas drawing near,
Wish you love and gladness,
And a happy New Year.
