An Early Holiday Poem

This seems to be my Poetry Soup way of life: "Thank you for your wonderful poems. We only allow 10 poems posted per 24hr period so that more poems are read. Thanks again for your wonderful poety. In the meantime, please comment of the poetry of others." Look at this Poetry Soup Comment and tell me what is wrong with it? How about poety and of which should be on for starters? Don't get me wrong. I am just trying to be a nice guy. They didn't put any of my recent poems on their recent email either. My jinx has just been broken so here goes: An Early Holiday Poem Part 1 I certainly must make a confession She sure seems to have such an obsession About a glorious new star and it siting Inviting an occasion for poem to be writing. Compared to other ones, this star outshone Appearing like it was standing there all alone Way up high in a completely dark sky While we on earth were wondering why. Some people were making and declaring an edict About somewhere in Bible were people predict A great, huge star someday will soon appear Signifying the Christ Child was close and near. Yet, they didn't have a recorder called a cam But I believe it was in beloved Bethlehem Cute Christ Child was cuddled in a big barn So everyone could start spreading a yarn. Three wise men met Jesus with their presence With all of their real, actual pleasing presents Which created quite a stir with their demure With some perfume, frankincense and Mir. After perfectly planned party was finally done Christ Child's glorious life had now begun Outside many people started to toil and tarry And rebuilt barn into a Romanesque Monastery. Why did they pick a Romanesque style of all things? James Thomas Horn Retired Veteran
