Notes About The Poem
Written on December 15, 2024
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Feels like Christmas
Imagine what they must have felt,
Burning in their heart, to melt
Away the bitterness and fears,
All the darkness from past years….
Imagine how their souls were blessed
Could anyone have truly guessed
That silent night, as a star called down
Sprinkling peace all around….
Imagine when the Lord was born,
In a stable, so old and worn,
To a virgin, the mother of love
Mary, who would praise heaven above…
Imagine the songs that were sung,
By startled souls, both old and young,
Kings and peasants, all knew this birth
Answered prayers, bringing heaven to earth…
Imagine the joy that came, overflowing
Through the heart and soul, spirit’s glowing
Reassured by the presence of this King,
The One who caused all the angels to sing….
Imagine the peace, wonder and hope
Falling from the One who taught us to cope,
With the earth’s darkness, pain and fear
All the reasons we praise Him throughout the year….
Imagine a Christmas when we celebrate the One
Who assured us, he’d one day say well done,
Invite us to a home where our soul shall believe,
He is the light who silences doubt on Christmas Eve.
