Holiday Wishes

We wish for you a holiday
That's better than your dreams,
Filled with peace, good will and hope
And firelight that gleams,

Overflowing with holiday spirit
Good food and holiday laughter;
And when it's done, We hope that you
Live happily ever after!

By Joanna Fuchs

Here's more holiday poetry, perfect for a greeting card.

Special Holidays

We're thinking of you this time of year,
Wishing you happiness, joy, and cheer.
May all your days be warm and bright,
And your nights enhanced by holiday light.

Enjoy your delectable holiday foods,
As parties and gifts create holiday moods.
Favorite people play a meaningful part,
While treasured rituals warm your heart.

You are special to us in many ways,
So we wish you Happy Holidays!

Here's another holiday verse for a greeting card. It's a holiday rhyme that applies to most people on your holiday list.

That Time Of Year

That time of year's come 'round again,
So we wish you all the best.
The joy that comes from knowing you
Makes us feel that we've been blessed.

So we'll share with you our feelings
At this special time of year:
May your holidays be a delight,
Filled with happiness and cheer.

Happy Holidays!

By Karl and Joanna Fuchs

Holiday poems usually contain good wishes, as this holiday verse does. It's a short holiday rhyme that will fit on a card or gift tag.

Bright Happy Time

The end-of-year holidays are here at last,
That bright, happy time when we have a blast!
Our wish when your new year has finally begun:
That you look back at months full of pleasure and fun.

Happy Holidays!

By Joanna Fuchs

Children's holiday poems can be written from a child's point of view, as is this free holiday poem for a kid.

Child Holiday Poem

My mom is cooking holiday treats;
My dad is spending money;
They think they've hidden all the gifts;
It's really pretty funny.

Now Mom and Dad are whispering;
They imagine I don't hear.
I'm really all excited;
It's a happy time of year.

I've made my holiday gift list;
Whatever I get, I'll be glad
To be a part of my family,
And the best holiday I've had!

By Joanna Fuchs



Holiday poetry is usually given to people you care about. This holiday rhyme is designed for that purpose.

Joyful Holiday

At this sparkling, joyful time of year,
We think of people who are special and dear;
We’re sending this poem in the hopes it conveys
Our best wishes for your Happy Holidays!

By Joanna Fuchs

Holiday poetry can include all three end-of-year holidays, as this verse does.

Three Holidays

The end of the year brings a special gift:
Three holidays give our spirits a lift.
Thanksgiving, (Christmas/Hannukah/Other holiday) and New Year’s, too,
May they bring lots of joy and pleasure to you.

Happy Holidays!
