Sandra Haight Poet Pantoum

Notes About The Poem

Commingling Spirits of Christmas

Heavenly flakes of light snow, drift on down,
weaving soft blankets of whiteness, pristine,
vowing to serve neath His Christmas Eve Crown;
beautiful visions, so peaceful and clean.

Weaving soft blankets of whiteness, pristine,
while from that Star, blessings shower the town.
Beautiful visions, so peaceful and clean;
hillsides cascade like a white satin gown.

While from that Star, blessings shower the town,
nestled this night among glittering trees,
hillsides cascade like a white satin gown;
symbols of Christmas- commingling to please.

Nestled this night among glittering trees,
high on a hill, Santa, with Rudolph, stands;
symbols of Christmas- commingling to please,
spreading God's love- as the bright Star commands.                                                        

High on a hill, Santa, with Rudolph stands,
vowing to serve neath His Christmas Eve Crown;
spreading God's love- as the bright Star commands-
heavenly flakes of light snow, drift on down.

This one flows with great beauty. Sandra Haight December 30, 2019 at 6:19 PM Thank you so much, Caren! So nice of you to stop by with your uplifting and encouraging comments. Much appreciated!
