Play of Words - a Blitzing Christmas

Listen to poem:
It's Christmas time, the most beautiful holiday It is time for music, it is time for play. Play of snowflakes, here and there Play of the children from everywhere. Everywhere Santa is sharing toys Everywhere Santa is sharing joys Joys and happiness Joys and soul peace. Peace from above, heavenly one Peace brought to us by Jesus, the Son Son of God and Son of Man Son born in Bethlehem according to a plan Plan of salvation,plan full of grace Plan performed here,in this very place Place visited by shepherds and by angels Place visited by Magi, the eastern strangers Strangers in the world, aliens on the Earth Strangers are we all like Jesus at His birth. Birth and life, death and ressurection Birth and Ascension are proves of God's affection. Affection for the whole human race Affection mixed with charming divine grace. Grace, mercy and peace from Jesus our Savior Grace, saved by grace from our bad behavior Behavior and sinful nature Behavior typical to human creature. Creature with inclinations to scrimmage Creature made by God in His own image Image full of beauty, image of perfection Image received by man at Creation Creation , rebellion then Abel's blood Creation followed by a world flood. Flood and destruction, olive branch and dove Flood and eight souls saved by God's love. Love, sacrifice and fully paid bill Love revealed completely on Calvary Hill Hill of the Skull, the place where Jesus died Hill of the pain where Christ was crucified. Crucified by Romans in the past Crucified for our sins at last. Last but not least for the sinners who were in danger Last but not least Jesus, the baby was born in a manger Manger, a poor stable in a building wing Manger, only a manger for our beloved King? King of kings and Lord of lords King is the Word in the world of the words. Words of gratitude for Chrismas days Words of forgiveness and bright sun rays Rays... Days...

Wonderful piece Ghita! Saw some stuff that might be errors Line 12*Bethlehem Line 20*Proof or you could remove "are"&"of" Line 22*Divine Line 31*Rebellion Line 37* Skull The. blitz form doesn't carry punctuation except for the eclipse at the end of the last two lines Other than that, this was a very touching poem I especially appreciate lines 36-35. :)
