Poem
Christmas! The most loved time of the year! Holiday magic: decorations and festive cheer, Returning festivities of this late December day Is a world-wide celebration of one, whose birthday Set the Christian world aflame back in history! This ever since, has been regarded the start of AD. Millions have followed his teachings since that day, And despite persecution, true believers seldom sway! Strong were His teachings: to love our fellow man! It’s a tenet, in which many believe, and by which we can Strike down adversity, if we follow the “righteous way”. Confident in knowing, when comes our final day, On our being called, to give account for past actions, Most of us hope our family and friends reactions In recalling our life’s deeds, will prove a delight, Not a litany of ill deeds, as our sternest critics might! Gifts given today, represent the Three Wise Men, who brought. As Envoys, presents for the new born King they sought. Not knowing whom they’d discover on their arrival? Did know He would be essential for man’s survival. They were made aware, by the arrival of a star, He was important, so they’d travelled from afar In search of the place where he’d be born. Such was their joy on that auspicious morn In finding he was somewhere in Bethlehem, Secure in knowing they’d find the Saviour child, Which was their sole aim and chosen intent. Herding sheep on the hills, resting in their tent, Yet aware events were unfolding, lowly shepherds Were visited by angels, and paid heed to the news they heard! Everywhere, church bells, rang out loud in joyful jubilation, Calling all mankind to rejoice in the celebration, Extolled a birth which would affect every nation! Lying soundly asleep in a lowly manger, for a bed, Every inn full: Mary and child sheltered in a cattle shed. But from such lowly beginnings, his fame and teachings grew: Remembered with joy at Christmas, as most Christians do: Although many years have since passed, Believers celebrate This day as His birthday. Upon this most auspicious date, Everyone who “believes” will rejoice and participate. Rhymer. December 20th, 2016.
