A Christmas Song Comments

Honesty though, I'm pretty sure you know i'm not a Christian believer (not since my college days) . I WISH there was/were a 'Jesus'/'God' to save us, but i think we are 'on our own'. Too bad. : ( bri

Valsa, Please just send me lots of gifts. 'We' need a 'savior' more than ever. Ok, maybe not 'more than ever'. : )

Like a Christmas carol with musical rhythm and rhymes, filled with childish joy and innocence; bells and lights and childish hearts, and memories of the sweetest years! This poem sets the mood for the festive season!

Ding dong bell Let the merry bells ring'! Beautiful poem Valsa. Belated Christmas greetings. Beautiful lines... Even the poorest hearth is warm Delicious cakes and cookies baked On Christmas trees, festoons hang Many a gift, so thoughtfully wrapped

The true reason for Christmas. Beautifully penned. I hope you were blessed for Christmas and the New Year.

This a joyous poem which is framed by two fanfares of bells and jubilation. The wonder is that you sustained the joyous mood in all of the inner stanzas - you never flagged for lack of expressions of joy. I re-read Milton's ON THE MORNING OF CHRIST'S NATIVITY which is a great poem in its baroque conventions but it left me admiring his virtuosity but unmoved. In other words, it did not put ME in a Christmas mood. Your poem did. I'm not saying you're a better poet than Milton (well, maybe) but rather you put your hand and heart on the pulse of the Day and found the language to make that pulse beat in our hearts. I underrstand these things in a cultural way because I long ago left behind faith in Jesus. Did you know Emerson turned down a comfortable position as a parson because he did not believe in the divinity of Jesus? I am of Emerson's camp. We have to look elsewhere. But unlike Emerson I still acknowledge the season of Christmas and the very real joy it spreads over us ALL. There's magic in that as your poem shows.

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you. Let the bells ring in peace and cheers. Great Christmas write.

Happy New Year! I loved your description of Christmas! I thank you for honoring the wonderful Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for indeed Christmas is about Him! Great work, Loyd

Here once again Christmas has come and Jesus has kept his place high that we realize with truth. Glory to God and peace on Earth we hope soon on realization. Behold his tender and live life makes this poem very much special and beautiful excellent work.

Christmas is the time for family reunion and time to be happy. You have captured the essence of Christmas in this poem. Let me also take this opportunity to wish you and your family A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY AND FRUITFUL NEW YEAR 2015.

The joy and cheers that Christmas bring in our lives, cannot be overemphasized. Christmas is a time of the year when we relegate all our troubles and fears to the grave and live in peace and harmony. During this period, we remember all those who contributed towards our lives in diverse ways and wish them blessings and prosperity for the next year. Indeed, Prof. has demonstrated her poetic experience with a nice, soft, and beautiful poem wishing all hunters a merry Christmas. I would equally like to cease this opportunity and wish her and her family Merry Christmas. Not just her alone, but all members of this noble community...Happy Christmas To All of you.
