Xmas Comes Poem by Kumarmani Mahakul

Xmas Comes

Rating: 4.8


Xmas comes once in every year,
It brings happiness and gladness tear.
December twenty-fifth is a holy-day,
Also it is for the student a holiday.

This day is celebrated as Noel,
Who redeems us from the hell?
He is the Redeemer, noble Christ,
He is known as Jesus Christ, says priest.

In this holy-day Christian sister and brother,
Worship Jesus Christ and Mary Mother.
They decorate the church with fragrant flowers,
Colourful light does bedazzle the light-showers.

Fanatical Children make exquisite garlands,
Which beautify the splendour of Holy Land?
They also decorate with holly the holy of the holies,
Candles light hall and make the gloom release.

With homage Christians read Holy Writ,
And pray and nod under God's feet.
Not only the Christians but also other,
Pray to God and nod without bother.

They play on drum, trumpet with joy,
All together dance, sing without coy.
Different food stalls are set near holy land,
They get contentment by eating hand in hand.

Some fancy shops are opened near festive ground,
People purchase faience and some toys in bound.
Xmas indeed brings compunction and compassion,
It makes consciousness in brotherhood and impulsion.

A wonderful reminder of the meaning of this time of year. Christ, mas does come but once a year, but the sentiments you convey are universal and last all year 'round. A spectacular work, Kumarmani.
