Merry Christmas from the BBC and me
At Christmas EVERYONE loves a sprout!
Sprout Boy
There once was a sprout with love to give,
Looking for friends to spend Christmas with.
A baker he met whilst out and about,
Said ‘I love Christmas pudding, and would not go without,
But nobody ever liked a sprout’.
The toy maker was next to fill him with doubt,
‘I love Christmas gifts’ she was heard to shout,
‘But nobody ever liked a sprout’.
Soon a burley woodcutter, short and stout,
Said ‘I love Christmas trees and I always sell out,
But nobody ever liked a sprout’.
Then a voice said ‘Come join us’ inviting him in,
‘Take a seat, the fun is about to begin,
Together as ONE is what it’s about,
And at Christmas, everyone loves a sprout’.
