Robert Johnson Poet Acrostic

Merry Christmas

M any little children wait for santa claus tonight.
E ven one's who are all grown up and their pants a little tight.
R eliving times when they were young.
R emembering Jesus loves me that they sung.
Y es Jesus loves Me.

C hristmas comes for one and all.
H e was brought to us in a livery stall.
R elieving us from all our sin.
I n every heart he lives akin.
S ending all his endless love.
T o help us know he's up above.
M aking sure we know we're not alone.
A lmighty and so kind, his tone.
S ending glad tidings so all will have known.

For the acrostic contest.

Andrea Dietrich November 21, 2013 at 5:37 PM Here I am again back to this Xmas poem. A fitting one for the season today. thanks for reading Lola. One girl thought i was writing about Barry Manilow's showgirl Lola. haha. You know, when I was young, I thought the song could be interpreted two ways. Lola could be a boy but not necessarily. I guess that is not what Youtube is saying!! Oh well, I still like to think it could just be a woman with a low voice!!

Andrea Dietrich November 19, 2012 at 10:45 PM revisiting this one since it's close to Xmas time!! Happy Thanksgiving, my friend.

Elizabeth Wesley December 26, 2011 at 6:37 PM Now it is over and you probably could write one to bring in the new year. Perhaps give us some hope in all the horrible things that are happening. Take care Robert, hope all is well with you!

Elizabeth Wesley December 25, 2011 at 6:56 PM Your special touch says so much in this verse. Glad to see your pen moving and I hope the New Year gets you filled with inspiration Robert. Your little comment verses are a great part of my day! :)

Andrea Dietrich December 22, 2011 at 10:36 PM A good entry, Robert. I got a kick out of the second line, the pants a little tight! I enjoyed the rhyme you made for your comment on my last poem. Thanks, Andrea
