Crazy Christmas

December 24, 2017

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. This week’s theme is Christmas, which is celebrated tomorrow, on December 25. Tonight is Christmas Eve.

Today’s poem is a Christmas poem to a child about joining in the angels’ song.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

Yours,

Nick Gordon

Crazy Christmas! Angels falling
Down like snowflakes from the sky.
Hear their joyful calling, calling
Each to each as they go by.

“Peace on Earth! Good will to all!”
They sing on this cold Christmas Eve.
Oh, my child, heed their call,
And in Creation’s good believe.

For angels know far more than we,
And every word they say is true.
So with them join in joyfully,
And sing to them, as they to you.
