JOYFUL

JOYFUL Joy Surrounds The manger A star shines bright Love spreads in the night A peace celebration Angels with admiration Fly with precious birds, spreading word To villages of houses, tree to tree Christmas lights fill windows, in the dark Paths of harmony, light the way Carols spread through the valleys With snow capped peaks above All frosted with love A carriage ride Leaves soft tracks Jingling Joy Heidi Sands 12/14/23

Awwn, this is a gorgeous nonet poem for the contest! The aura of Christmas is coming alive in the splendor of your saccharine words.. Weaving a blissful imagery in the reader's heart.. "Carols spread through the valleys", "jingling joy" You've beautifully captured the ambience of this festive season in these wonderful lines.. Best of luck for the contest :)

Dear Heidi, what a beautiful, serene picture of Christmas in this lovely poem of faith. It is so lyrical and celebratory all at the same time! There is such serenity like watching the world at Christmas time from a "carriage ride" - a Christmas witness. Thank you for this loveliness. Best wishes for the contest! Sending you continued prayers for healing and blessings for Christmas!
