William Kelii Kekaula Poet Chastushka

Notes About The Poem

Do They Know It's Christmas

Do They Know It's Christmas

Shepherds from a nearby farm,
heard star sing o'er Bethlehem,
she sang hymns as cops disarm,
three unwise rob an ATM.

Andrea Dietrich December 24, 2020 at 5:35 PM I liked the contrast between the three wise men of old and the "unwise" at the ATM. Congrats in my contest and Merry Christmas to you, William.
