Akkina Downing Poet Free verse

Merry Christmas

Are you paying attention 
Can you hear it now
It's coming very close 
Yes it's Christmas time again 

Oh tell me you feel it
Is your heart beat with excitement now
Are you wondering if you're naughty or nice
Set free of negative thoughts, feel the magic 

Holy night
Born is the king 
Our savior 
Jesus Christ 

Listen to His voice 
Look out for His signs 
Feel Him in your heart
Let Him be your all wants and needs

He need you to be ready 
Welcome Him into your heart
Be content for what's you have
But most of all, be happy

Peace 
Joy 
Love 
Merry Christmas to one and all


         Smile

Maria Williams December 11, 2017 at 2:01 AM A beautiful Christmas Prayer for all dearest friend, which sings out loud and clear. To set free our negative thoughts and feel the magic and the true spirit of the Season, which is so easy to overlook , getting caught up in the commercialism and the glitz. It takes wonderful poets like you to give us a little reminder now and again. Thanks for sharing these lovely lines of yours Akkina....Maria xxx
