Another traditional poem is the short Shakespeare poem which reads: “At Christmas I no more desire a rose/Than wish a snow in May’s new-fangled shows/But like of each thing that in season grows.” This poem highlights the winter specific feel of Christmas and celebrates it. Shakespeare is saying that every time and every season has its purpose and that its important to treasure them for what they offer. Poems like this are perfect topics for students that are writing a christmas paper just before winter break.

Other traditional Christmas poems include “We Three Kings” and “The Little Drummer Boy.” Although these poems have been sent to music, they can be read without music to appreciate their value.
