My favorite Christmas present a bunch of lilies white as a milky crescent by street children who reside in the slums came to meet me to offer them some alms I saw almighty residing in their eyes a gleam of joy enshrined in my heart in arise

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

This is a precious and touching rhyme. It might read better if written 'heart arise' instead of 'heart in arise.' Somehow that last 'in' threw the good flow off for me, but I do truly like the poem ... CayCay
