A musical Christmas Card to friends and family Written,performed and produced by Jonathan Patrick Moore

Just a flight of fancy and memory.

An English Christmas Days are swiftly drawing in, scudding grey clouds threatening, Smell of wood fires burning, shrouding the swollen town, Icy snail trails winding, bundled children hiding, Seeking some then finding, as the watery sun sinks down. Huddled choirboys shivering down the High street carolling, Sound of hand bells ringing, cutting through the frozen air Christmas decorating, every window celebrating, The gift we are awaiting at the closing of the year... It's a Christmas Card so magical, Traditional yet typical, A memory so personal, The way it's always been And though it's many years since I, Have tasted mother's mincemeat pie, I still recall in my mind's eye, An English Christmas scene. 3 'o' clock the choir from"Kings" all the household listens in "Hark the herald angels sing" as we all hum along, Later on to church we go, sing "In Dulci Jubilo", And "See amid the winter's snow" all my favorite Christmas songs It's a Christmas Card so magical, Traditional yet typical, A memory so personal, Of smells and bells and rhyme And though it's many years since I, Have tasted mother's mincemeat pie, I still recall in my mind's eye, An English Christmas Time.
