December is here with Christmas beckoning at the door
He saw every house bright with many a lamp
And the whole streets illumined with colorful lights and stars
But his tiny hut looked dismal n’ dark like a prison camp

The little boy believed Jesus has answered his prayer In the guise of a man he has never before seen With rising delight, he saw a star in the graying sky It shone right over his head with a brighter sheen. Yes God helps us in this way, a nice poem.................10
Good to open the PH site this morn and find your Poem on the special Day. Very touching story, in well-honed quatrains, with rhymes and assonance, Felicitations, Poet-friend Valsa on the poem being chosen for honour on the holy festival. I recalled a hymn we sang with Miss Bain at the piano, long ago (1940's) in a 'convent school' in Kilpauk Oh come, let us adore him. May 'Faith, Hope and Charity' prevail. The word 'charity' comes from the Latin 'caritas', via French, as Wiki reminds me, along with a picture by Raja Ravi Varma. Our languages have 'dana' as a virtue and a constant ideal. I mark this heartening poem of yours 8. AM ,
On the sidelines of Valsa George poem, you have shared some beautiful things which are interesting and also add to our knowledge. Thanks, Sir.
