Twas the Night Before Christmas

Twas 

 night before Christmas

Teddy
       warm    
               soft

timeless  hold
   eased Nick's
impatience

gay  hunger

towards
     believing  even

festive ornaments
reindeer      elf

Christmas   holidays
raise
incandescent
            sentiment
towards
    many
            alit
    souls

Hi Eve my dear friend, I agree with you that Christmas holidays do raise incandescent sentiment towards alit souls, and what happens to me is I am so moved by a Christmas service, and, I love singing carols, but I cannot sing because i am so chocked up, no sound comes from my mouth! HAPPY NEW YEAR EVE! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Thanks for sharing this. By God's grace, I greet you with the peace and joy of Christmas and prosperous New Year along this present: "the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 6:23 of the King James Bible). God bless you.
