Hi Francie, First, Congrats on being selected as the poet of the day. You deserve it, by all means, for this poem. In today's world, where maladies, atrocities and hopelessness rule, We still cherish hopes, when a CHILD IS BORNE. Fantastic write.

Congratulations! Seeing your poem as poem of the day is matter of happiness of course. This is very thought provoking. After birth very often a man suffers from diseases, hunger, poverty and sickness. Entirely this is very amazing and this reflects another scene of the world. ...10

Cool poem, nicely conceived and well-written. A child doesn't have to be the son of god to change the world.
