Twas the Night Before Christmas

"Twas The Night Before Christmas" 'twas the night before Christmas day Angel voices rehearsing sinners preparing brand new way as "Good News" began dispersing. blue indigo sky glowing starlight to guide three wise men to new babe by one brilliant star beaming so bright welcome, Christ the King, who would save. on a cold Christmas Eve of snow shepherds adored in straw stable His humble birth would greatness grow the Word made flesh is no fable. 'twas the night before Christmas morn peace on Earth good will to all at midnight the Son of God born Merry Christmas who follow His call. *For Kim Merryman's Here We Go Caroling Contest.

Excellentie Linda. Not much sleep feeling giddy. I'll be serious now, an excellent write. I loved how your Quatrain read, and the flow was marvelous my friend. I need to try my hand at this style. Only been writing poems for four months. I'm learning so much from PS. Day one of 2013, Best Wishes, Connie
