Noel and Noeleen

Noel and Noeleen Winter loved this time of year,
On the 1st of December, they'd get out all the gear,
The baubles and the tinsel would come down from the loft,
The mince pies, nuts and chocolate logs would be bought in bulk and scoffed,
They'd play party games and quizzes every night after their tea,
And leave a glass of milk and cookie out on Christmas Eve,
Because thinking of Father Christmas going hungry made them sad,
You see, at 44 years old, Noel and Noeleen were quite mad.
