Nativity

christmas play
with delight
children neigh

manger scene
lovely sight
halo's sheen

children pray
silent night
grand display

A Nativity scene is indeed the nearest one can get to describe a Christmas setting, Sandra! Congratulations on your merited win. Regards // paul

Still just as festive and beautiful (I know you changed it)--not familiar with this form--all the best, Sandy.

Thank you Vijay the first one I did wrong apparently the first and third lines rhyme but then the middle line in all three has to rhyme. I had to change it to fit the rules I think I got it now Hugs

Now this is perfect. Silent Night works wonderfully in this. You have composed a complete story in this and it is wonderful. Definitely a winner. Nicely fixed my friend. : )

WoW! Sandra, I thought I commented on this one. Nevertheless , you created such a lovely sight with your words. I get it's like a Christmas play, about the nativity scene. You did a great job with this new form. Have a wonderful day:-) Alexis

Thank you Alexis...you did comment but my first attempt was wrong... the middle line must rhyme with the center line in all three stanzas...i had to rework it... hugs... enjoy your day!
