Visiting ‘Christmas Wonderland’

Wonderland Poetry Prompt Challenge Day 30

Photo by author: Nativity scene at Christmas Wonderland

Christmas Wonderland mysteriously

materialises in our CBD…

a magical magnet drawing all to

see, enjoy and marvel together

in a fantasy forest of twinkling

lights of all shapes, celebrating Christmas…

Nativity scenes mingle with Rudolf

Bunya pines tower over all, festooned

in their finery, blinking on and off.

Our world in miniature: Sydney Harbour

Bridge, Taj Mahal, Eiffel Tower lit up

amongst the fragrant shrubs, hedges and trees.

Local dance classes perform while parents

look on, as shy toddlers spin, trip and fall.

Concert bands belt out favourite carols

crowds sing along, shoulder to shoulder with

family and friends, locals and visitors

alike, sampling sausage sizzles and free

ice-creams that drip on shirts, shoes and steps.

Our local Lions Club labours long to

share this amazing annual event

Bringing the community closer

Together, for the exorbitant cost of

a gold coin donation… if you can spare it!
