I met a green elf last winter
And Santa said he's sometimes bitter.
Snow balls were flying into the sky
And Rudolph was convincing his nose to shine.
Children were singing outside,
And the stars were shining brightly up high.
The colorful lights that twinkle
Were entertaining the people who winkled.
What Christmas represents is all around you.
Gifts, lights, emotions are just a few,
So take your family, make this your goal
To worship the Christmas joy in your soul.

Se află în partea de SE a României. Oraşul este situat pe malul stâng al râului Ialomiţa, într-o regiune de câmpie – Câmpia Bărăganului. În prezent, oraşul are o populaţie de aproximativ 53.000 de locuitori şi o densitate a populaţiei de 4874 loc/km2 . În ceea ce priveşte structura etnica, se remarca predominarea românilor şi aromânilor 97,56%, urmaţi de rromi 2,42% şi alţii.
În centrul orașului este Centrul Cultural UNESCO „Ionel Perlea” unde au loc expoziții, concerte de muzică, conferințe. Deasemenea aici se află Biblioteca Județeană unde se găsesc secțiunile pentru adulți și cea pentru copii precum și o sală de lectură. După cum se obervă, numele centrului este la fel cu cel al liceului nostru din moment ce Ionel Perlea a fost una din figurile muzicale importante din zonă și nu numai.
Orașul nostru are parcuri frumoase unde te poți plimba și relaxa. Sunt patru școli generale și cinci licee și, bineînțeles, grădinițe. Avem și un cinematograf dar din nefericire nu multă lume se mai duce acolo. Să nu uităm de zonele sportive precum modernul stadion si terenurile de tenis unde copiii pot exersa cât vor. Deasemenea, avem și restaurante moderne și drăguțe care găzduiesc evenimente importante precum petrecerile de botez sau nuntă. Catedrala, Mănăstirea și Bisericuța din lemn dau un aer aparte orașului, din punct de vedere religios.

Our Winter Tale by Andreea Cristodor
A story begins today...
Like each and every year
A magic child appears
Coming to save our souls.
A bell tolls in the distance
Bringing the merry news
Hope is what we feel
As He came to help us redeem.
The sky is joyful
Down in Bethlehem
There in a magic manger
The virgin Mary came.
She is the young Mother
Giving Messiah to light
There, embraced by nature
The King has arrived.
Like each and every year
A magic child appears
Coming to save our souls.
A bell tolls in the distance
Bringing the merry news
Hope is what we feel
As He came to help us redeem.
The sky is joyful
Down in Bethlehem
There in a magic manger
The virgin Mary came.
She is the young Mother
Giving Messiah to light
There, embraced by nature
The King has arrived.

Winter Light ... by Corina Păun
There's a certain slant of light
On winter afternoons
That oppresses, like the weight
of cathedral tunes
The sky is low, the clouds are mean
A travelling flake of snow
Across a barn of through a rut
debates if it will go...
