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.

Xmas is special to many as we celebrate it with great pleasure and we feel the festival as it enlightens us. Children enjoy much and people offer prayer in Church. This poem is splendid.

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.

A timely, topical poem, as Christmas approaches. This is an affirming look at what Christmas is and why people celebrate it. Now I can't wait for Christmas.

AltoGETHer dance, SING. They're not COY. Many FOOD stalls set NEAR holy LAND. With conTENTment and EAT Hand in HAND Kumarmani.... with minor tweaking you can sing to the rhythm This is called scanning and sets up a nice beat. da da dum da da dum There is a pitfall here.. You must put the beat on the part of the word that is NATURALLY sounded eg you could not go contentMENT or trumPET The poem is excellent and I am pleased to see you writing rhyming poetry. I find this very attractive. I believe it is worth while to make poetry move with rhythm. a 10

My favourite time of year seeing all the happiness and love portrayed but too it saddens me when so many run around in search of gifts they can't afford. We ought to take the beauty of Christmas you are talking about and join in spiritual song thanking God the Father, Mary the mother and Jesus the son for all the Blessings of Christmas.....

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. I haven't read a poem from Kumarmani Mahakul without a great message...............10

Deogarh, Odisha = St. Paul, Minnesota. The second city is my hometown, and honestly there is not that much difference between the Christmas celebration here and there. I mean that quite sincerely. I enjoyed your evocation of the holiday/holy day in both poetry and prose. The irony is, born into a fervently Christian family raised to to see only ONE RELIGION as the absolute truth and ALL others as wrong, or false, or evil, I, the first born son of my extended family, eventually tired of Christianity in general and Roman Catholicism in particular, and began exploring other religious traditions to the consternation of my relatives but once my pilgrimage began, I had to keep journeying. I would today describe myself by the awkward phrase - a multi-faith believer. HINDUISM in its many manifestations is one of my pursuits, but I am humbled by its complexity and antiquity and consider myself just a novice in the ante-chamber of the Temple of Truth, or as the Gita teaches, the Four Paths to God, of which jnana yoga is most compatible with my bookish nature. If I had to name the sacred book most important to me, in all humility it would be the Upanishads, with the sacred truth ATMAN IS BRAHMAN AND BRAHMAN IS ATMAN. And so ends my confession all the way from cold Minnesota to hot India. Be well and happy, always!
