Christmas

This acrostic draws from a Christian and a more secular thought pattern to Christmas.

C Christians celebrate the birth of Christ
H “helpers” are called Elves if they are at the North Pole with Santa
R Rivers that run through the forest to grandmothers house are frozen
I ice extends from the fingertips of Jack Frost
S Singing is what carolers do at your front door
T the tomb is empty because the story of Christmas doesn't stop with a birth of baby Jesus
M Marry is the mother of Baby Jesus
A Angels sang for the announcement of His birth
S Star that was bright pointed the wise men to baby Jesus.

Nicely done, especially remembering Mary and the true meaning of Christmas at the end. Thanks for my win in your last contest too, Miranda.

Hi Miranda, I do like reading Acrostic poems, I'll have to try and write one myself.

I have never written an acrostic in my poetic life. Strange muse of mine.

It's an easy format to try really.
