holiday poem

Festive written stanza

A holiday poem is verse written for or about a holiday—Christmas, Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day, or similar occasions.

These range from greeting card sentiments to literary works like Dylan Thomas's "A Child's Christmas in Wales." The term often suggests something occasional and lighthearted rather than ambitious: The kids each recited a holiday poem at dinner.
