Christmas Poem 2006

CHRISTMAS


				Christmas day began 
				With a child of virgin birth
				When Jesus, our Lord and Savior, 
				Came to dwell on earth

				This is a time we celebrate
				And thank our God above
				For Sending His Son to save the world
				Through His marvelous gift of love

				Now, there are those who would take away
				The reason for the season
				And have us proclaim Happy Holidays
				Instead of Merry Christmas

				Let's hope that this is just a fad
				Something that will not last
				And make each year become so sad
				With the ghost of Christmas past 
				
				Rejoice, I say, and be filled with cheer
				Proclaim His Royal Birth
				Spread glad tidings far and near
				And pray for peace on earth

				Keep Christ a part of Christmas
				He's the reason we celebrate
				Emmanuel, God with us
				His Birth was oh so great

				So don't allow this lowly few
				To take Christ away from us
				Instead, proclaim His love anew
				And make this a Merry Christmas

fourth stanza is epic that was directly from "the Muse", Whose son was born in a manger, in Bethlehem. grabbed me by the boo-boo, very impressive! i read quite a few poems til i read that stanza. i was wasting my time. thank you, and strive for that always, fellow gentlepoet!
