Notes About The Poem

Nativity of Jesus

To look 
upon His face, 
hold in my craving arms, 
seek his divine grace and favor.
I'd spread my wings and sing a Cherub hymn. 
The Seraphim angels' harps would 
strum melodies paying
homage to our 
God's son.

Hi Eve Nicely done. I dont think I can do this contest. A little too confusing for me. Best of luck to you. I just did the Pale Shelter one and I dont write poetry like that at all. I hope thats what he was needing. I listen to the song and gave what I thought the song meant. Thanks for sharing this
